TriviaBot Midnight

Purpose

TriviaBot allows the user to host quiz games for other players.
Spamming it in /say in crowded places is not a good idea,
but Blizzard's spam prevention makes it alot harder to abuse it that way currently.

It's a nice and safe pass-time among consenting adults. :-)
Used best in a party with friends or to liven up that "dead" guild chat.

Midnight + Forever

Triviabot is now updated for 12.1.0 and Forever. As the game updated multiple times since the last update came from the original Author marspett I decided to publish this fixed version so everyone can be frustrated again when you misspell a NPC name from 6 Addons ago.

Usage

• /triviabot or /trivia to bring up it's control panel.
• use dropdowns to choose your set of questions and categorys
• set the chat channel and other settings like question interval and question time limit

Other Commands

• /trivia help will list other commands.
• !tb help whispered to a game host will list other whisper commands.

Quizzes

For ease of use, i choose to include "Lorewalkers of Silvermoon" and a "AI Generated" questions set as pre-packaged quizzes, since the quizzes are no longer maintained. You can still download extra quizzes or create your own, just make sure the following line in their *.toc file has the current World of Warcraft Build Number. For example (Patch 12.1.0):
