| | If you're interested in participating, go to #settings and ensure that you have the Quizard server role enabled. The Quizmaster will create server events for upcoming trivia sessions. If you subscribe to one of these events, Discord will remind you when they start. Additionally, the Quizmaster will tag the Quizard server role, assuming you don't have notifications for the server or #trivia muted. |
| | |
| | As of 2024, the Quizmaster runs trivia sessions on Wednesdays and Sundays at 17:30 Eastern time. Because of daylight savings time in the U.S. and elsewhere, the exact time in other time zones will vary throughout the year. The Discord server events will display your local time. |
| | |
| | These sessions use Quizbot, a third-party Discord bot that handles scoring. Answering any question counts as participation for the matching DB competition. Points are awarded for correct answers, with faster responses granting more points. |
