LexiaBot9000
LexiaBot9000 is an IRC bot run by Fernin in the SydLexia.com IRC channel. The bot was added as a trivia game, though right now the trivia sucks (send Fernin some good pop culture questions about the 80's and early 90's, damnit!).
On / Off
LexiaBot9000 is turned on and off based on the privileges it is granted by channel operators. The majority of it's functionality can be turned on by granting the bot "Voice". Some additional bot features require full Operator privileges. The last Operator to leave the channel should make sure to remove Operator status from the bot and leave it with only "Voice".

Trivia Game Courtesy
Trivia can be fun, but can also irritate the hell out of people. Follow these, and we'll all get along.
- Chat takes priority over trivia. If people are talking, ask before hitting !start. If someone says !stop, trivia is over. On the flip side, if you have nothing to chat about, don't stop trivia just because you don't like it.
- Try not to answer questions that you submitted, that's pretty much cheating. Give others a chance, and if they don't get it after three hints, then go ahead and answer it.
- Try not to answer questions that you've seen before. There's only so many questions still, so repeats happen a lot. Give others a chance that may not have seen the question yet.
- The exception to the above is if it's a question that you know everyone has seen, or if it's a Quick! Quick! question.
- Answers which are numbers that are less than 100 are ALL written out. So, if the answer happens to be 3, or 12, or 97, it'll actually be three, twelve, or ninety-seven. This is because of the hint system, and also to prevent the insanely annoying situation where multiple people are spamming "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7!" trying to find the right number quickly.
- Server lag happens. On your screen, what you send will appear in the chatroom immediately. On everyone else's screens, that may not be the case. While it may look like you answered first on your screen, the bot always recognizes the person who appears on its own screen first. This isn't bullshit, it's the internet, so don't bitch about it.
- Don't even think about going to google, wikipedia, gamefaqs, or any other place to look up the answers. That's just plain lame. If you don't know it, too bad.
- When submitting questions, don't submit idiotic nonsense like, "Hello./Spikey Love Nipples" or "Hahahahahahaha./Hahahahaha Hahahaha". And please, no 4chan memes.
Trigger Words
The bot also triggers off of some words and phrases, such as "Porn", "Bot", and "bored". No, they're not all going to be listed. Finding them is half the fun.
- Note: The bot now has the commands !shutup and !speak. These commands turn the triggers off and on, respectively.
Other Bot Stuff
Some games have a 5 second delay timer on them to prevent bot spam. So far as I can remember, this is currently limited to the !letter command of the Hangman game, and the !fire command of Russian Roulette.
Timebombing or passing the potato to someone who is AFK is nothing short of a dick move, and will get you kicked. That's the reason both of those games can only be turned on by the ops, since the power to kick anyone just shouldn't be available to anyone at all times. Just don't do it.
While you are free to define and redefine any word or phrase you like, don't use the bot to troll. Also, if there's a disagreement about what something's definition should be, don't get into a definition war and go back and forth removing and redefining it. This is about the most immature thing you can possibly do with the bot and will only serve to piss off the ops, and probably everyone else in the room.
Any new games may well still be going under beta testing, so don't expect them to work perfectly all the time. If you find any glitches, bugs, or other mistakes, report them to Fernin.
Some commands and triggers will only work when the bot has ops.
