Alright, you all ready to wrap up the year with a bang?
For the fourth year in a row, I'm going to be hosting a HUGE trivia game in IRC chat on Friday evening. It's actually called The Fourth Annual Team Quiz Holiday Moot Trivia Game, but we'll just refer to it as Holiday Moot :p.
The story behind this is that four years ago, when I was eleven (lol young), my friend BOO_THE_GHOST and I thought it would be neat to try that out. We did, and every year since then we've done it. We did it so late that year, though, that now we do it late every year to preserve tradition. However, the day's festivities will run throughout the afternoon to the early evening.
The game itself will probably run from 11:30 PM EST - 1:30/2:00AM EST depending on how much time we need. Late start? No complaining, k?
The most important thing about the game is that you get as many people as you can to come. Advertise wherever, just get people to come. We always try to get a huge outcome (of people we know) to come. This means you may advertise on any forum and ask any friend to come (you know, online friends) and join us. The record is 22, and I've got a feeling we can easily bust that this year.
Considering it would be no fun to just play a game of trivia at 11:30 at night, I organized some other schtuff for Friday.
-Does anybody still play Mario Strikers Charged? If so, myself, MH, and possibly others will be playing Saturday during the day. We'd like to get as many games in as possible, and if you can all record your wins, whoever has the most at the end of the day gets a prize, possibly.
-iSketch! At 10:15ish, I'll create a Room of Awesome (either VI, VII, or VIII, depending on how many times a ROA is needed prior to that) in the User-Created tab. Everybody loves iSketch! Ha!
-An challenge starting later today that will run until Friday night. You guys are familiar with word scrambles, I would guess, and you know what? I'll have 125 of them for you. You can only access the next one once you figure out the one before it, though. Once I finish, a thread will be posted about it later. You can access the board now, but you can't get the first word yet. Whoever gets the most will win!
Sign up here to see the numbers. (http://z15.invisionfree.com/Conundrums/index.php?act=idx) Again, you can't access #1 until I finish at least up to 80.
-This all culminates to The Fourth Annual Team Quiz Holiday Moot Trivia Game in IRC at 11:30 PM EST. I have yet to decide the channel, but it is almost definitely not going to be in #nsider. Stay posted for that. Thanks.
If anyone thinks of anything else for the course of the day, do tell.
Thanks, guys!
Awesome, at the very least I will play MSC :)

I'll make an FC thread in Power On on Thursday or Friday, likely.
Do it in #pytriviahq or Maro will feast on your soul.
Ill be there, unless I have plans on friday
I'll be there for as long as possible! I do have a bed time, however, so I'll probably have to get off midway through trivia.
Can you do it on Saturday? I'm driving back to my house on Friday, and I want to make it.

TQ on Saturday, silly.
Let's see.
I might do MSC, though I'm a noob at it.
I'll do the word scrambles. I love those.
Will there be any theme to them?
I'll probably do iSketch.
But, trivia is a bit late for my tastes, since I have to get up early on Saturday for something. D:
