Join GQT!

The Gryffindor Quidditch Team is looking for new members to join!

About:

HOL Quidditch is played on IRC, an online chatting tool. You can download whatever chat you’d prefer to use as there are many options: mIRC, KiwiIRC, Mibbit, etc… It’s played through trivia questions where players rush to answer the questions the quickest. Every few weeks, two houses play against each other to earn house points and points that will go towards seeing who wins the Quidditch Cup at the end of the year!

How to Join:

If you’re interested in joining GQT, we’d love to have you! It goes without saying, however, that you must be a Gryffindor to play on our team 🙂 Simply send a message to Prof. Jenny Lupin letting her know you’d like to join and practice with our bot to perfect your trivia skills!

How to Play:

GQT trains in #gqt (a channel on IRC) which can be accessed by typing ‘/join #gqt’ once you’ve connected to the correct server which is ‘irc.blitzed.org’. Once you’re in the correct channel, there should be two ‘people’ there – Angelina and Oliver – that are part of the bot. To get the bot to start, type ‘.start‘ and to turn the bot off type ‘.end‘. Remember to always turn the bot off when you’re finished! While playing, the bot will shoot trivia questions and you need to type the answer. If you need a hint while playing, type ‘.hint‘ and a few letters from the answer will show up to help you.

More Commands:

 

  • .streak = Once you’ve finished, you can look at your stats by typing ‘.stats’. Your stats tell you how many points you have, how many questions you’ve answered, your best time, best speed, and best streak.
  • .best time = This command shows you everyone’s best time.
  • .best questions = This command shows how many questions everyone has answered.
  • .best streak = This command shows everyone’s best streak.
  • .best speed = This command shows everyone’s best wpm (words per minute).

Happy Botting!
