📝 Description
Why Choose QuizzerBot?
-
🎮 Two Ways to Play:
-
Classic Chat Quizzes: The original fast-paced, timed trivia event that appears directly in chat.
-
New! Dialog GUI Quizzes: An interactive, on-demand quiz menu built with Paper's new Dialog API (requires 1.21.6+).
-
-
🏆 Dual Leaderboards: Separate rankings for both the classic chat quizzes and the new Dialog quizzes to track different skills.
-
⚙️ Easy Management:
-
New! CSV Import/Export: Easily manage your question banks! Export questions to a CSV, edit them in any spreadsheet program, and re-import them. (Warning: Importing overwrites the entire table, so please be careful!)
-
Simple in-game commands for adding, deleting, and modifying questions for both systems.
-
-
🎁 Customizable Rewards: Configure custom commands to reward players for correct answers (supports %player% placeholder).
-
🚀 Lightweight & Easy Setup: Works out-of-the-box with automatic configuration. Uses SQLite, so no external database is required.
How It Works
1. Timed Chat Quizzes (Classic)
-
The plugin randomly selects questions from the main database at intervals randomly chosen from a configurable time range (trigger_interval_sec).
-
Questions appear globally in chat with clickable answer options.
-
Players have a set time limit (defined in answer_reveal_delay_sec) to answer before the quiz ends.
-
After the time is up, results are announced. Rewards are given to a set number of correct players (up to player_reward_limit). 'Quick Answer' status is given to the first few correct players (up to player_QuickAnswer_limit).
-
If a 'quick' player answers incorrectly, their reward slot can be taken by the next correct player in line, ensuring rewards are distributed.
2. Dialog GUI Quizzes (New in 1.2.0)
-
Players can type /quiz dialog to open a new interactive menu.
-
This system uses a separate "Extra" question bank, keeping its stats and leaderboards distinct from the chat quizzes.
-
Perfect for creating on-demand challenges, server guides, vocabulary lists (like CET-4/6 words!), or special event trivia.
