SentinelCraft GRAND TRIVIA 2016!

SentinelCraft GRAND TRIVIA 2016

Hello everyone! :D It has been almost a year since I joined SentinelCraft, and to celebrate this awesome day, I will be hosting a special trivia! But this isn't any ordinary trivia, it's the GRAND TRIVIA of 2016!!! This trivia will be a bit special and the rules will change a bit, so if you wanna read them, just go down and read it up. Be sure to come online, you can win a lot of prizes, and money isn't going to be the only prize ;)


*I am not responsible for any misunderstandings in the rules, if you find a problem, please inform me in forums, not in-game when the trivia is about to start... ._.*

*Special thanks to VioletSong (dragonfiregirl123892378412947892349294) and DanielyMery for helping me out with the rules :D Thank you so much!*

Rules for the trivia:
1 ) There will be a total of 25 questions. Each question will be worth $1000.
2 ) The first correct, and legible, answer in the Global Chat will win the question
3 ) The questions will be prepared before the trivia starts. Each and every possible attempt has been made to ensure that the question can be understood. If there are two possible answers, list only one of them. DO NOT spam the chat saying the question is wrong >_>
4 ) The theme of the trivia is: SentinelCraft! However, be warned, there may be one or two questions which will be out of the topic. Google is your best friend. :)
5 ) Questions may come up instantly or with a random delay, so stay ALERT. Questions may even come up while I am AFK. Watch out :D .
6 ) The trivia will be point-based. Each question answered, correctly, will award a player one point. After the 25 questions, the player with the highest number of points will win $25000. In the event of a tie, there will be no tiebreakers and the prize money will be split between the tied players.
7 ) THE GAME WILL NOT START WITHOUT AT LEAST 15 PLAYERS ON THE SERVER AT THAT TIME! IF ENOUGH PEOPLE ARE NOT ON WITHIN THAT TIME, THE GAME WILL BE POSTPONED BY ONE DAY.
8 ) Players are welcome to donate to increase the Grand Prize money. Please contact me in-game or on the forums. :) Donations can be added to the final question prize or to the point-based prize.
9 ) In the event that any unforeseen circumstances arise, THE GAME WILL BE POSTPONED BY ONE DAY.
10 ) There may be special questions which may affect the gameplay of other players. Use them to your advantage. ;)
11 ) There will be a 'Final Question'. It is special in nature, and different rules will apply to it. This question will be worth $25000, and no one can be banned from this question: everyone is free to try and win. This question will award the player 5 points, instead of 1. In order to balance out the gameplay, you can not win both the 'Final Question' and the point-based trivia.
12 ) The rules are subject to change without notice.

The trivia's starting at March 24, 2016 at 5 PM GMT! Be sure to come online! :D

Lol Ab.
And question? Why does the player need to earn the 5 points in the final question if he/she is illegible for the point-based prize?

This is actually to increase the chances of a tie and make everyone (well the runner-ups)happy. However the chances of this happening are going to be very slim.


Suppose we have two players: Player A and Player B. Player A has 31 points, and player B has 26 points and player C has 25 points. It's time for the last question, and player B wins the last question. So player B has now 31 points. Technically, he should win the final question and tie with the point-based trivia, but the final question is more dominant, and therefore, he wins only the final question. However, since the point-based trivia has been tied, the prize of the point-based trivia will be split within player A, who was the winner, (if you consider player B doesn't exist) and the player who is below player A, in this case, player C. Player C was able to win half of the prize since player A tied with player B, so you can imagine that player B handed down the extra prize he couldn't have down to the next available person, who is player C.
[this is a bit complex, and so was hard to put in the rules, thanks a lot for bringing it up so that I can write it down.]

you should get glasses, I clearly read "I will give the prize to Jzargo because he's gonna win the trivia anyways"
Bind us all together,
ablaze with hope and free;
 No storm or heavy weather,
will rock the boat, you'll see;
 The time has come to close your eyes,
and still the wind and rain..
