Are there still StarCraft questions asked? 'Cause I haven't seen one in a long time, and most people can get those ones since the trivia is on a Battle.net server.

Yes, there are SC questions interspersed in the ginormous question file, I've seen them, but they don't come up often.
And, yes, it is a B.net server, but there are not only SC players. There are WC3 and D2 players as well.
*Note* "those ones" is not proper grammar. Simply saying "those" is sufficient.

Oh, also, perhaps you could rewrite answers so that all answers to questions such as, "Who did America fight in the Revolutionary War?" would be either "Britain" or "England", instead of different answers for different questions. I know that depending on the time period it would be known by a different name, but it would be much more convenient to have the answer be uniform.

I think some of the television questions should be revised. It seems, to me at least, that recently, many of them have been about older shows. I know that many adults play, but the majority of users on Battle.net are kids. Maybe updating the shows to somewhere in the last 10 years instead of 30.

I'd say the leader Questions. Not all of them because some of them people will know but not the random ones.

Regarding science (especially chemistry questions), maybe less random esoteric compound naming (you know, the "naphthoquinone is the decomposition product of _____" type questions) and more conceptual ones (even if "conceptual" comes down to "name this term by definition")?
I have a whole lot of that kind of question if it's needed (I posted about 1/5 of them but never got around to posting the rest).
Also standardizations of the sulphate/sulfate use would be nice

Ok, I've said this before jokingly, but I'm actually serious about it now: I think many of the "year questions" that cause so much spam should be changed to multiple choice type questions, so as to cause less spammage. 'cause realistically, only like 3 people know all the dates that those questions ask for.

What you do in that case Zerg is type .wrong and that will report the answer as being wrong. I think Doom works on those when he gets time.

G I was told .wrong did nothing. Was I misinformed?

.wrong only does something if somebody (Doom *cough cough) actually goes and fixes all the mistakes.

Chal can also write in the trivia script, that whenever someone hits .wrong, it will take the variable TC.Question (or whatever variable the random question is taken from) and dump that to a file, so that the wrong questions are all in a file instead.
