Hiya
I am using Metis Bot to run my Trivia
Is there any way to get HINTS to show up?
At the moment i am adding hints to each question e.g.

<Trivia score="5"><q>Who is the Roman God of Love?\n\n             #c1#Hint : C _ _ _ _</q><a>Cupid</a></Trivia>

OR doing multiple choice e.g.

<Trivia score="4"><q>Who performed the song "Paranoid"\n\n             #c3#Deep Purple #c4#or #c2#Black Sabbath #c4#or #c6#Led Zeppelin</q><a>Black Sabbath</a></Trivia>

BUT this is taking FOREVER lol

Hints does not work yet
If I can find the time and understand the code I will try to fix it

Hi Gpsyroadhog

We are here... we do have some people looking at this at the moment. Unfortunately nothing can be done over night it does take time with other commitments as well.

Just keep looking at this and we will have something sorted for you as it is a a great idea for any trivia.

Hi there,

a function like hints is allready in RoboMX's trivia pluggin (I might be mistaking but i have a feeling you have seen this in action in one of my old rooms)
it requires no hint writing at all and gives the hint at half of the "thinkperiod"
Keep in mind that metis and this RMX trivia pluggin do not like eachother so it needs to be in a version whitout metis added

I am quite sure it is in the archive here if you want to try it Gypsy

Greetings, .. Joshua203

Thanks Joshua
i will have a look at that, but think the scoring system i'm using (1st to 100 points wins game)
didnt work with that bot....i'll try again...and thanks again

Joshua203 · « **Reply #10 on:** February 05, 2009, 03:36:07 pm »

you could be right about that Gypsy, i am not saying it this pluggin was/is flawless but it does have the feature,

I hope it would be a waste of time trying because i can not recall if this was one of the known buggs

sorry

Joshua203 · « **Reply #11 on:** February 05, 2009, 03:39:58 pm »

would NOT be a waste of ......

If tipex would work on puters i ld probably be making them very rich ....lol

You may not be able to edit your post, try modify, left of quote on top of your post, it works for me and by all means, whoami

gypsyroadhog · « **Reply #13 on:** February 05, 2009, 10:58:02 pm »

Thanks again Joshua
i did try RoboMX again but it didnt work with the points system(as i thought)
Also with RoboMX i could only see a winner could win, by setting amount of questions(if that makes sence)
SHAME the 3 bots for trivia didnt have hints and a points winning system
HOPE the people looking into sorting Metis are getting somewhere
