Timed questions with diminishing score #37

Closed iafisher closed 4 years ago

Should also have a !pause command

iafisher commented 4 years ago

Alternately, instead of timing out abruptly I could do diminishing score as time increases. The advantage of this approach is that measuring the time it took to answer a question is simple, while preemptively cancelling the input operation when time runs out is complicated and error-prone.

Diminishing score would work very nicely with spaced repetition.

Should display a warning at the beginning of the quiz if any questions are timed, and then clearly indicate which questions have a time limit and what the limit is.
