Trivia Bot

What is Trivia Bot?

Trivia Bot is a fun, fully functional, and verified Discord bot that serves the purpose of satisfying your Trivia craving! There are many different modes of Trivia that you can play, either by yourself or with others in your Discord Server. The bot uses the Open Trivia Database API for the trivia questions that are used in the game, so shout out to them for the really cool API! You can find out more about that here.

Commands

There are many different commands you can use to interact with Trivia Bot. This section will be evolving as more features are continually added! Here is a list of the current commands:

• !tfchill Starts a round of chill T/F Trivia.
• !tfcompetitive Starts a round of competitive T/F Trivia.
• !mcchill Starts a round of chill Multiple Choice Trivia.
• !mccompetitive Starts a round of competitive Multiple Choice Trivia.
• !help Lists out all the commands that Trivia Bot responds to, and what they do.
• !info Responds with a Discord embed that contains links to GitHub, Top.gg, and the Discord Support Server
• 🛑 Stops the current Trivia game

The difference between chill and competitive:

chill allows all users to select an answer within the time limit competitive only accepts the first correct answer; everyone else loses by default

You can also append any of the commands to help to learn more about the different game modes, like so:

• !help tfchill Will give more detail about this specific game mode, for example.

Sub Commands

Trivia Bot now supports optional sub commands!

So...what does this mean for you? Trivia Bot can now take time [seconds] as an optional sub command so that you can extend the time limit per question in a Trivia round! This was done to make the game more accessible for those that can't read as quickly as others, or simply, for those that just want to take their time playing!

Please note: This option is only available for chill modes of gameplay. This is due to the nature of chill modes; competitive modes are meant to be quick, rapid-fire rounds which is why this option was not applied to competitive modes.

Please note part 2: There will be more optional sub commands added in the future such as selecting more than 10 questions, specific category selection, and difficulty selection, to name a few. Please stay tuned for these!

How to use the Sub Commands

time [seconds]

Let's say you want to play a round of tfchill but want to make each question have a time limit of 20 seconds:

All you need to do is type the following: !tfchill time 20

By default, Trivia Bot will give you 10 seconds per question. So, if you don't provide time [seconds], then the bot will default to 10.

Limits:

• Minimum: 10 seconds
• Maximum: 180 seconds
• Can only be applied to tfchill or mcchill game modes

Command Aliases

Sometimes you'll mispell something and sometimes you'll want a quicker way to interact with the bot. Below are a list of aliases that exist so that your original intention will be recognized:

• !halp, !hwlp, !hrlp works for !help
• !mchill works for !mcchill
• !mcompetitive, !mccomp, !mcomp works for !mccompetitive
• !pong works for !ping
• !tfcomp works for !tfcompetitive
