Back when Nikolce facepalmed at the incompetence of the Shredder and his two punk-rock minions, Beebop and Rock-Steady.
Sounds more like a really bad Heavy Metal Band than a group of bad guys.

EDIT: Rooks is tinkering with the mechanics of it. He said it would be relatively easy.
Don't know how international the American version is so it might exclude people from elsewhere.

There are 7 Chinese restaurants in my area, and they all have different specials.

Well, Rooks was talking about retooling the chat function for real-time and having team randomization. A twelve or twenty-four hour open/close to include time-zones would be ideal.
I feel like all this would be bogging Rooks down...Possibly? He said two weeks could be doable. We can try it in thread form, so it wouldn't be something to add to his list.
Input from everyone with interest is appreciated.

It was always "literally mini-cookies! In a bowl of milk!"
Edit: Doesn't get any more literal than this.

Between the preservatives, the massive sugar content, the dyes, the complex carbs, etc, those cereals all ended up being somehow worse for you than just eating a half dozen donuts.
God bless you, Fruity Pebbles.
And re: commercials. That always killed me when the Michael Bay Transformer movies started coming out, the cries of "selling out". Yo, guys, it started as a 22 minute toy commercial. I'm pretty sure no one's artistic values were compromised any further than they already were.

Well, the chat code is already vaguely real time in that it refreshes automatically, which is why I was going to use it as a base (and maybe improve it along the way).
The plan is basically:
- Clean up/genericize the chat code as necessary
- Make it instanceable
- Give instanced rooms the notion of a 'host'
- Add hooks for extra plugins to go on top of it (like a "trivia" control panel)
#1 and #2 are simple enough, just from what I know of the chat code as it is. #3 is just making the moderator options flexible and allow limited upscaling of privileges for the host. #4 is reasonably straightforward as well, since the things it would need to do are:
- Randomize teams (easy javascript piece)
- assign points
- display a scoreboard
None of those pieces is particularly arduous, but I have a fairly busy week this week, so the odds of getting it in next week's patch is probably low (though maybe the upgraded chat piece, who knows). But two weeks? That should be more than enough time, barring disaster.

I'm usually stuck at work friday afternoons. I don't think I'd be fired for a bottle under my desk though...
you've given me a lot to consider.

Keep it in an oversized flask and whenever someone questions you, call it "Medicine".
maybe adding a timer to a question and then randomizing the next question ?

I'm leaning this way as well.
It doesn't have to be two weeks, I was just going with the time-table you gave in PMs. It's whatever. You're being generous with this in the first place.
Ravael and I were shaking it down to bare-bones bar trivia via PM, also. LOL!
EDIT: I just hope it doesn't get messy.
