trivia bot question database #80

Closed ghost closed 2 years ago

ghost commented 2 years ago

back when i ran a chat network we had a trivia bot, somewhere along the lines a questions database appeared and this is a snapshot of that.

pretty simple format. seems like the kind of thing you might want to add to your server.

Good idea

Putting forward this for where to source questions from, just need to query their API and should be an infinite amount of questions: https://opentdb.com/api_config.php

that's cool @polyrain i will say though that the database i linked has 49,743 entries, and that api has about 4,000.

right, but it's much easier to query an API than deal with managing it ourselves :)

Should we close this as the trivia bot is alive and well?
