Being that is said what you can do is get one of them free shells that allow IRC communications, and have a bot come to your channel who is permanent that allows you to trigger the quiz script.

I would personally stay well away from "free shells" especially as a small and decent shell can be used for $3US a month. Or run a windrop if you use windows Or run an eggdrop or perl bot if you use "nix".

If the first, you'd have to rewrite it in php or some other language that could run on a web server. If the second, leave your mIRC running and connected 24/7.
