Hate these trivia posts? The Announcements? Come to the Efreak Super-challenge Spectaculaaaaaare!

So you all know how Sundays at 6 PM EST, in the Steamgifts official Steamgroup's Steamchat, the chat room for Steamgifts on Steam, the chat room linked to on Steamgift's Steamgroup, we meet. And there we run through a series of between 20 and 60 questions of varying difficulty for about an hour or so. This is the page that tells you what is coming in the future:

May 31st - Efreak Super-challenge Spectaculaaaaaare

The Spectaculaaaaaare will be my final trivia, I have gotten really sick of people being asses without breaking the rules just to be disruptive.

So, no more trivia announcements? You betcha. Leastwise, no more from me.

Prizes, a Spectaculaaaaaare cannot be Spectaculaaaaaare without prizes.

Efreak is sponsoring Tower Wars, Adventures of Shuggy, Space Trader: Merchant Marine, RIP - Trilogy, Pixel Puzzles: UndeadZ, Pixel Puzzles: Japan, Commando Jack, Chompy Chomp Chomp, Rush for Glory, and Frozen Hearth.
Crazedanimal is sponsoring Shadowrun Returns.
Nasty Hero is sponsoring Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed.

Aaand I will have some prizes too.

Of course, only the top ten placing answerers of questions get a chance at those prizes, so, trivia it up Trivia Knights.

Special rules exist for chat during these Trivia times, we will ban people from chat for violations of those rules. And don't forget, the normal rules still exist too, like mark NSFW content.

Zero: As with a site quiz, don't give other people answers. If you're turned in, you're barred from all future trivias I have anything to do with.

One: Answering a question with a valid answer earns you a point, answering a Trick Question by pointing out it is a trick and explaining why gains you two points, answering a question with a detailed response as judged by the Trivia Master de jour will earn you two points, getting the special detailed answer after someone gets a valid answer will still earn you a single point.

As an example:

12:16 PM - chronicdiscord: We all know the Grimace is a citizen of McDonaldland, but what was he when originally introduced?
12:16 PM - Deirü: Alive.
12:16 PM - Judge Jade: An evil villain
12:17 PM - MMRhino: He was a fast food worker
12:17 PM - cg: an insect-like villain that stole milkshakes

Now, here we see cg giving The Right One™, but after Jade gave one that worked... What happens here is that both Jade and cg get a single point, had cg's come in first, he would have gotten both points.

Two: The objective of Trivia Night is to obtain a position in the Top Ten of those participating that night, thus earning you a slot in a ten slot private giveaway. In the event of low scoring players having a tie, we will run a small elimination round to ensure we only have 10 entries for the giveaway. If anyone else answers, correctly or falsely, in this time, it's a ban, we don't want anyone mucking up Trivia Night. Before asking a question the Trivia Master will block all chatting, unblock, then ask the question, then you answer, this prevents people from complaining about anyone getting a head start with their answers and gives you all a clear sign that the question is incoming.

Three: While Trivia is running, the Trivia Master's name will be green, because they will be running a game in the background. You will not be green, only the Trivia Master gets to talk and be green, this is to ensure no confusion for people as to when official Trivia stuff is being said.

Four: No spamming answers. You can only give one answer per person per minute, any more and you are considered to be spamming. This is based on the Trivia Master's screen and what their timestamps say. There is no other way around this, it's harsh, but it's the best we can do. Any copypasta of longer than 15 characters will be treated as spam and dealt with accordingly. Spamming answers will have all your answers be ignored.

Five: The first to answer gets the point, based on what the Trivia Master sees, you complain, we ban, and no, there will be no kick step on this. You may request a recheck, no one's eyes are perfect, but don't go moaning about being pingfucked, that's not cricket.

Six: If you complain about the questions, you get kicked without warning. There have been way too many Trivia Nights where we see nothing but people saying, "ask more questions about things I know!" You are missing the point and you are being incredibly rude to the people asking the questions and putting up the prizes.

As fair warning, often times the trivia questions asked may qualify as spoilers to the things which they deal with, so if we have a topic you are interested in going into without it being spoiled, you may not want to show up for that night. If you're really interested in seeing Girls und Panzer without it being spoiled, skip Girls und Panzer night.

If you can play by these rules, then you can join us for Trivia Night, a weekly event that has been running for quite some time, more than an entire year. And heck, if you want to run your own night, with your own questions or prize, we're always looking for sponsors and question providers. And seriously, thanks to those folk who have sponsored trivia nights over the course of the last year, it's crazy that this has been going on so long.
