Think you're a pro? Think you know who invented all the styles, who made all the shortcuts, who was the first to do all the times? Who won every tournament, and who had WRs in the different tables? Make your way to #mopokuskis and challenge the Elma trivia champs there.

So far we over 150 unique questions about the scene, and we are getting at least 20 more every day. Please feel free to send us more challenging questions if you can think of any.

And for those of you who like to see their name on a records list, here is a challenge to beat:

Record streak: sierrah of 27. Record time: sierraa of 1.165. Record wpm: sierraa of 72.103004.

So get yourself down there a.s.a.p and find out how little you really do know! N00b!

One can here see that Sierra played much alone (or against opponents with much larger ping than him) on his own questions and also typing answer to questions b4 questions and then pressing enter as he saw question getting lucky once

pedro · Post by **pedro** » 24 Aug 2004, 14:59

just a reminder: if you are going to send questions, make them in the format of <question here>*<answer here> without the <>'s

haha, exactly ;D

sierra · Post by **sierra** » 24 Aug 2004, 22:06

lol Jalli nice try, although i'm afraid you will find that you get autobanned if you do that trick you mentioned... the bot regards any answer under a certain time to be impossible, and bans you.

<pedro-MK> sierrah, your ping is 0.95 secs.

lol oki you might be right about this

teajay · Post by **teajay** » 25 Aug 2004, 00:00

I tried what jalli mentioned btw and your record is accepted, but you get banned. I made 0.4 sec time on my own triv which seems to have a ping of 0.2low. I got autobanned with that btw.

pedro · Post by **pedro** » 25 Aug 2004, 13:34

another reminder, scrambles can be made two ways, the first is Scramble*answer or unscramble: scrambled letters here*answer

milagros · Post by **milagros** » 25 Aug 2004, 14:35

i wanted to beat the fastest answer
so i wrote thousands of 'mr' by pressing up+enter in 20 secs
then i wasn't able to write anything in next 10 mins:)
and everybody was slaping and kicking and blahlbalh

..there wasn't any question with answer 'mr' during that period

8-ball · Post by **8-ball** » 25 Aug 2004, 16:15

wow. i was about to start setting similiar thing up when i get back home.
good work dudes.

J-sim · Post by **J-sim** » 26 Aug 2004, 07:20

hah milagros it was a bit more than 20secs though, more like 20mins

Revolt · Post by **Revolt** » 27 Aug 2004, 09:11

milagros · Post by **milagros** » 27 Aug 2004, 09:53

i pressed continously up and enter for 20+ secs and next 20 mins it was only updating

sierra · Post by **sierra** » 27 Aug 2004, 10:36

Jonas' record of under 1 second must be cheated in the same way

AND must have had amazing ping

that record will stay for a long time

teajay · Post by **teajay** » 27 Aug 2004, 11:09

Or you just delete the score if he cheated.

pedro · Post by **pedro** » 27 Aug 2004, 19:01

i saw when jonas made that time and it wasnt meant, he just pasted something from the previous question because he was first on his screen and the next question happened to be the same answer.. on a side note.. happy birthday to me!

teajay · Post by **teajay** » 27 Aug 2004, 20:15

haha, that's really funny! Grats btw pedro then, 14?

8-ball · Post by **8-ball** » 18 Sep 2004, 09:57

But the Month's contest is still going, go get it tiger

Everybody hearing about this for first time, come to #elmatrivia at IRCnet!

milagros · Post by **milagros** » 20 Sep 2004, 16:16

there is one question:
at what level did toringe make his first wr?
as far as i remember it was o&u 30.58
but correct answer there is hill legend...

Tantal · Post by **Tantal** » 20 Sep 2004, 18:12

The answer is completely correct the way the question is phrased, but it was in multiplayer. His first singleplayer wr was over & under as you said...

8-ball · Post by **8-ball** » 20 Sep 2004, 20:34

Please report ALL incorrect/missing answers to me in priv, not #elmatrivia.

Kopaka · Post by **Kopaka** » 21 Sep 2004, 15:55

Can we submit new questions ??

teajay · Post by **teajay** » 21 Sep 2004, 17:37

Ofcourse

Make your way to notepad, write a question and send it to 8ball:

What is my name?*tijsjoris

so in this formula:

Code: Select all

question?*answer

And yes do it!

8-ball · Post by **8-ball** » 21 Sep 2004, 19:16

wrong. the right way is:

question*answer

without question marks.

special questions- KAOS:

KAOS: question*answer1*answer2...*answer10

unscramble:

UWord*thewordtounscramble

teajay · Post by **teajay** » 22 Sep 2004, 17:40

UHm, I assumed your trivbot was same as the original one I started with.
You had to add the question mark by yourself there.

8-ball · Post by **8-ball** » 22 Sep 2004, 21:10

my bot adds it automatically

8-ball · Post by **8-ball** » 25 Sep 2004, 22:33

teajay · Post by **teajay** » 27 Feb 2005, 23:24

Guess who got 3333 points there?

Tantal has 6666 and dunedan 1111
juski tries something too!

Juski · Post by **Juski** » 27 Feb 2005, 23:59

I got 666 and tijs b0g scored so now he goes for 4444

teajay · Post by **teajay** » 28 Feb 2005, 00:09

yes it was a scramble with the answer "tijsjoris" and i accidentally said tijsjoris instead of tijsjoriss what i was planning, to do some hinting.

Anyway, I just played for the score 4444 now

teajay · Post by **teajay** » 28 Feb 2005, 15:31

Now I have 5555. OMgz.

7000. Just to take 1st place you know

teajay · Post by **teajay** » 1 Mar 2005, 12:18

"you can instantly send the message you already typed"

Hm big chance you get wrong answer then. Although I have one thing to do some luck with: zyntifox in clipboard. I just can't type it that fast..

Anyway I haven't seen you give it a try. As far as I know my only competitors I should worry about are Markku and Tantal. They're fucking fast. Markku also knows more about alp and olp and lost levels than me..
