I planned for a second trivia if the first one was a success. If this one is nearly as successful as the last, I have a big surprise planned for the near future! So, in the second part of my little survey of interest, we are having another trivia!

What are the prizes?
The three highest scoring contestants (staff and non staff) will get a fancy trainer card ribbon. Every contestant who appears on the final scoreboard will receive a Trivia participation ribbon.

The four highest scoring non-admins will receive:
First Place - 1000 Psybucks, Operator status in #psypoke, and the Trivia King or Queen rank. (note: the Op and rank only last two weeks)
*Second Place - 750 Psybucks and Voice (+v) status in #psypoke (note: the voice status only lasts two weeks)
*Third Place - 500 Psybucks
*Fourth Place - 250 Psybucks

* If the contestant is a staff member, it will be awarded to the next highest scoring contestant.

Every contestant who does not place in the top four will receive 20 Psybucks multiplied by their point total.

When is it?
Saturday May 5th, 8pm EST. Check your timezone here.

How to get there
Trivia will be held on the Chats server in the #PsypokeTrivia channel.
To get there, use the java applet found here.
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.

Trivia rules
1. We usually have a big turnout in trivia, so it is necessary to moderate the room. The operators of the channel may set mode +m in-between questions and this reduces lag. You will not be able to talk during this time.
2. When the host says "Ready", this indicates that the question is going to be displayed soon.
3. You may guess as many times as you wish, unless the question states otherwise.
4. The host's decisions are final and if you really want to complain, type the following: /msg ChanServ COMPLAINT: Your complaint here
Although your answer may appear on your screen first, it will not always turn out that way for the host. Points will be awarded based on who appears on the host's screen first.
5. You must use your forum name to earn prizes.

Other questions
1. How do I get there???
Read above.

2. My timezone isn't on there
I'm incredibly sorry.

3. 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.

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

5. Is use of the Psydex, Walkthroughs, or other help guides allowed?
By the time you find the right guide, click, scroll to read, the correct trivia answer will have been given. And for the record, the answer to your question is "no".

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