It has been several years since I have done this, but I shall be hosting the first Psypoke Trivia of 2007! Some of you might be skeptical about this trivia because a non E4 is hosting, but I can assure you that I have done this many, many times before. There will be prizes, non-stop ACTION, and a few twists, so be sure not to miss it!

<b>What are the prizes?</b>
The three highest scoring members (staff and non staff) will get a fancy trainer card ribbon.

The three highest scoring non-staff members will also get:
First Place (1000 Psybucks OR 500 Psybucks and a Name Change Voucher)
Second Place (500 Psybucks OR a Name Change Voucher)
Third Place (250 Psybucks OR a Name Change Discount Voucher)
Every non-staff member who does not finish in the top three will receive 12 Psybucks multiplied by their total points.

<b>When is it?</b>
Saturday January 20th, 6:30 pm CST/7:30 pm EST. Check your timezone here.

<b>How to get there</b>
Trivia will be held on the Chats server in the #PsypokeTrivia channel.
To get there, use the java applet found here, and part #psypoke and join #psypoketrivia.
You could also use a IRC chat program and connect to the DarkMyst server (irc.darkmyst.org port 6667) and join #psypoketrivia.
If you are having troubles, please ask inside the #Psypoke chat room.

<b>Trivia rules</b>

1. No cheating. Please do not attempt to use any reference materials, such as the Psydex or game guides.
2. Do not use the /me or /action commands. The first time you use /me will result in a warning. The second time you will be kicked. The third time you will be banned for three questions. The fourth time will result in a ban for the remainder of the trivia.
3. For every fifth point a participant scores, they will be frozen. While frozen, that participant will not be allowed to attempt to answer the following question. After that question, they will be thawed. If a participant attempts to answer a question while frozen, they will lose one point.
4. You may guess as many times as you wish, unless the question states otherwise.
5. All channel rules regarding obscenity and behavior apply during trivia. DO NOT HARRASS OTHER USERS.
6. My decisions are final. Unless you are ABSOLUTELY certain that I have made an error, please do not pm me.

<b>Other questions</b>

1. It's too late/early for me!
The time was picked to best suit the general population. We can't all have our way. If you're that desperate to attend, sleep in or take a nap to offset your sleep schedule for a day.

2. Is it going to be Pokemon questions or general knowledge?
Pokemon.

3. Does typing matter?
As long as I can make out the words. "gayrads" would be fine since it's clear that you actually mean "Gyarados". Trying to pass off something like "grarghydfn" as Gyarados will not work.

4. How do the Vouchers work?
The Name Change Voucher is a pretend coupon which you may redeem for one name change whenever you wish. The Name Change Discount Voucher will allow you to get a name change at the low price of 250 Psybucks!!! You may only use your voucher once, and you may only use it through me.

5. I HAVE A COMPLAINT!!!!!
Most likely, the response to your complaint will be "BAWWWWW!!!"

Looks great! I'll try to get there, even though I'll probably get in 20th place for points. Hope to see you all there! One question though: I'm not really used to trivias...how long do they usually last?

I am curious.. what benifits do you get if you have more Psybucks?

Thanks

Or rather what are Psybucks used for? I have snooped around and found out that you can buy things from the Slateport Market. Is that all Psybucks are used for? To buy things from Slateport Market? Or are there more uses?

Yay! I didn't do well last month...

Now then, a few questions:
1.) What do you mean by Twists?
2.) How long will it be(number of questions, estimated time length)?
3.) Is Pokemon Diamond and Pearl also being included? What exactly will be on the trivia? RBY, GSC, EmSaRu, FrLg, and PD, the misc games. Anything else, like anime?

http://www.psypokes.com/forums/viewtopi ... c&start=60 is the site for psybucks help. Psybucks are used for buying stuff from slateport, trainer cards, or donating.

I question if you actually read the post, or if you just looked at the topic title.

you could do the following:

1.) Go to mIRC.com, and download mIRC
2.) Install the program
3.) Now open, put in your nickname and email address
4.) Click OK. Now you will see a white screen/box. Type:
Code:
/server irc.darkmyst.org

5.) when it connects, type:
Code:
/join #psypoketrivia


6.) To ask about this inside the psypoke chat room, type:
Code:
/join #pspoke


Note: commands and whatnot are available on the mIRC main site.

Also, FireStarter, I remember with the trivia in December - It wasn't clear that you had to use your psypoke name to get points and stuff. May want to make a point of that (or, if you don't want the ruld, you know)[/code]

If I said what it was going to be, it wouldn't be much of a twist.

Well, the mIRC tutorial Peanut-Lover gave you is pretty much as simple as it can get. However, an alternative would be to try using a different web browser to get to the Java applet.

Check your internet options; you might have Java disabled, which is why the Java Applet isn't working. And the instructions for getting mIRC are really as simple as it gets. I suggest you do it step by step to avoid confusion.

I gave you step by step instructions on how to access the chats without using the JAVA Applet. This uses a different method - the program known as mIRC.

If anyone is having trouble with the java applet and can't figure out how to use mIRC, you can always use the DarkMyst webchat. It's located here: http://darkmyst.org/?page=webchat

You need to put your forum name where it asks your name, and #psypoke (or #psypoketrivia) in the channel box.

ACCESSING #psypoke via mIRC FOR DUMMIES (now with pictures!)

1. First, download the installation file. You can access the install file here, and once it has saved onto your computer, OPEN IT.

3. A POP UP should OCCUR! Select Next > Yes > Install.

4. Run mIRC.

THEN:

Step 5
Step 6
Step 7
Step 8

IT SHOULDN'T BE THAT HARD. :)

As for the trivia, I'm still not sure whether I can make it or not. I hope to be there, but if I can't, be sure to have lots of fun without me :o!

Bogota (I think its the capital of columbia) is on est

it will be 7:30 pm

Caracas (very close) will have it at 8:30 pm


Go with bogota time, though
Or, check in at 6:20, check to see the time remaining, then if it didn't start/youre too early, check in at 7:20

Edit: Now I have a question-
-In light of recent events, I have been banned from the psypoke chat room. will i be able to participate in the trivia? This goes for all banned members.

Nah, I guess not.


- It looks like yet the THIRD time you've done this. Not only is this post spam, you are also not in a position to comment on P-L's ban. Leave it to the Chat channel operators. I suggest you immediately stop this behaviour, or I will personally boot you from the forums. ~TK

At least you got any... :(

Thanks fire starter for the trivia.

Altough I didn´t enjoy it because I usually had the answer, but thousands of people write it before me.

At the end it´s just became a "Who can type faster" competition, instead of a trivia :?

Anyway... congratulations gradevoir and TK for the best scores.
