Something like this would be the basis of my trivia...

Code:

alias start {
  msg # question
  .timerhint-1 1 5  hint-1
  .timerhint-2 1 10  hint-2
  .timerhint-3 1 15  hint-3
}
alias hin-1 { 
  unset %stop
  msg # hint
}
alias hin-2 { 
  if (%stop) { halt }
  msg # hint
}
alias hin-3 { 
  if (%stop) { halt }
  msg # hint
  .timerout 1 5  out
}
alias out {
  if (!%stop) { msg # Time out | .timerstart 1 6 start }
  else { msg # Wins nick | .timerstart 1 6 start }
}
on *:TEXT:*:#: { 
  answer ok 
  set %stop $true
  out
}

As could avoid answers out of time ?
How could prevent more than 1 winner?

It will be welcome any kind of opinion
thx

As to multiple winners, if you store the nick as soon as you can (ie: pass it from the ON TEXT event to the answer alias) only the first nick will be held, depending on the timing of the answers and the lag on the bot. I often run into that problem with an auction script I run, as people complain that they had a higher bid than the winner before the bot announced that the auction was over. Normally these 'bids' come in during the last second of the auction, but aren't received by the bot until after the auction is over, due to internet lag.
