AnvilBot is an IRC bot running mIRC which resides in #wikia-sims. It was formerly an "abuse" bot but has been revamped as a trivia bot for leisure commands.

The bot is currently not on IRC at all times due as it has no bouncer and Georgie doesn't want to pay (another) large electricity bill.

The bot is tested in ##GeorgieGibbons and ##AnvilBot. If five questions go unanswered, the bot will stop the trivia session to prevent flooding.

Commands

These are commands used by the bot. Please note that these commands will not work via a private message or any other channel outside of #wikia-sims or ##GeorgieGibbons.

Trivia commands

  • !trivia <number> - starts a game of trivia (i.e., "!trivia 50" will start a round of trivia with 50 questions)
  • !strivia - stops trivia
  • !trivia team <number> - starts team trivia
  • !join 1 - join team one
  • !join 2 - join team two
  • !showteams - shows what users are on what teams
  • !pause - pauses a trivia round
  • !resume - resumes a trivia round
  • !stats - shows your trivia stats
  • !roundscores - shows the scores for the current round of trivia for all players who have scored a point
  • !add <question>*<answer> - adds a question to the question list (the asterisk is necessary; i.e., "!add What is the capital of Denmark?*London)
  • !report <text> - reports a question or problem (i.e., "!report London is not the capital of Denmark" ; it can also be used to report other bot problems and to confess dark secrets :P). Alternatively, you may drop me a message on my talk page.
  • !rank - shows your current rank of all-time.
  • !record - shows the record times, streaks etc. of trivia players.
  • !hof - shows the all-time player rankings starting from the highest to the lowest score.

Operator commands

This section applies to #wikia-sims channel ops only.

Please do not ban the bot or its IP. Operators can disable and enable public use of trivia if it is being abused. To do so, all a channel operator needs to do is type any of the following commands after going into +o: !disable - disables the bot !enable - enables the bot

Memo service

AnvilBot can be used to send memos to users who may be offline. Whilst similar to MemoServ, the benefit is that AnvilBot can be used by non-registered users. The bot will PM anyone who has unread memos. To send and read memos, type these commands into a channel or PM window with the bot:

  • !send <user> <message>
  • !read

This feature can be used by anyone either typing /join ##AnvilBot or via a PM. Messages sent through the bot are not logged though someone else may be logging the channel used to send a memo. Any abuse of this service by using it to spam, harass, troll, flame and whatnot will result in either a ban from using AnvilBot, a ban from ##AnvilBot or both.

Ground rules

  1. Cheating is forbidden. If it becomes suspicious that you are cheating either by continuously getting questions correct after a long period of time (unless you can prove that your connection is lagging) or using RuneScript to cheat, you will be placed on /ignore by the bot, either temporarily or permanently, and may potentially risk losing your recorded stats. You have been warned.
  2. Triggering the bot's !trivia command repeatedly for the sole purpose of flooding the channel is forbidden and you may be dealt with as if it was you who was actually flooding.
