FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

It's totally free to play. However, if you're a high scorer, we may ask you to take a break (so that other players get a chance to answer), or tip 10 tokens to continue.

Some bugs exist that may never be fixed due to the way the chat designer has implemented their spam filters (repeated lines of text or unacceptable words/phrases). This will sometimes mean the QuizBot doesn't display a question or an answer. Sorry about that!

If you find a serious bug, please contact us and we'll look into it.

Use the contact form to let us know about incorrect data. Since we have over 120,000 questions, there are bound to be some incorrect facts. But please bear in mind that in some instances, you may have encountered the "filtering" bug mentioned above.

Again, take note of the "bugs" above. There's also a tiny lag on the bot. You have to answer around 1/2 second before the bot is getting ready to say nobody knows the answer, otherwise you won't get the point. Timing is everything!
