Trivia events
Trivia events can be run alongside lesser attention-demanding events like mining shared cans or as standalone events.
Before the event
- Collect a list of EVE-related trivia. You can follow a theme if you want: lore-related, faction-related, ships-related, etc.
- Decide on a point system if you're planning on awarding prizes.
- If there are enough participants, you can split them into teams. Set things up for a team event beforehand (Mumble comms, a different point system, prizes).
Communications
- For Mumble: if there are teams, it's a good idea to use one of the fleets channels so that each team can use the subchannels for private comms. If not, make an on-demand Mumble channel that you can customise.
- For chat: the Events (EVE Uni) is open to use for events like this. Teams can also use group chats to talk among team members.
During the event
- Set up teams if you're planning on organising the event that way. Ensure that each team has its communications set up.
- Teams should also decide on an order in which to take questions: Pilot A goes first, Pilot B goes second, and so on.
- Before you ask each question, ensure that the player is not AFK and can respond. You can do this by asking them to verbally confirm their presence on Mumble, or x-up in chat.
- You can use a buzzer system if there are teams: the first player to x-up in fleet chat after a question has been asked gets to answer it.
Scheduling
- (Day, Date, Month)
- (Time, Plus Event Duration Estimate)
- (Form up Location)
Requirements
- Mumble
- Be in (Form Up Location) at the start of the operation.
