[idea] mini-game 'TomeNET quiz'

Post by tangar »

This idea came to me when I saw this in chat:
Darkens reached floor 24 in the Ironman Deep Dive challenge!
**Sharper Darkens (25) was killed by poison.**
A sickening mound of decaying flesh, bones, hands and so on. It seems to be
growing.

Darkins has entered the game.
**Fire Phantom was slain by Druid Darkins.**
So.. Darkens was killed by poison, but the message which I got (new experemental feature /beta2) showed description of a monster! I wondered who it could be (only afterwards I saw monster name below).

What we could make:
Every 10 minutes 8ball ask the question in chat - description of an artifact, monster or just a Tolkien-based riddles, like:
What has roots as nobody sees,
Is taller than trees,
Up, up it goes,
And yet never grows?
The first player who put correct answer get small prize (like /tip for his current lvl). Also just for fun there could be leader-board with people who answered most riddles :)

If no one got an answer after 30 seconds, 8ball reveal 1st letter.. after another 30 seconds - second & etc.


Btw it's also possible to create such game in Discord via https://github.com/Cog-Creators/Red-DiscordBot , which could make custom trivia ;D

Nope, it doesn't. Also it's not in the Guide.

OMG remember when Ifrit and Caine spat out the answer as fast as the questions appeared? I wouldn't know the answer to half of it and I wrote the damn thing. That was some great old times.
