binski's a really good source, too, Brian... He's got all sorts of useless knowledge... We tried to set up something like this for MKP quite some time ago... We'll need database access and some PHP...
The database would need really one table... Question ID, the text of the question, options, correct option, difficulty level. We could do random questions as well as randomly sorted answers. To make it uniform, you'd need to specify the options and make them multiple choice.
Possibly a second table to keep track of their session/score would be good, too...

I'll leave the question asking to others who want to do it. It will give them the opportunity to be a part of the site. I'm still racking my brains over the in depth trivia that I do.
For example: I realized last night while doing trivia for The Twin Factor, Kim thought that Drakken took over the world in A Sitch In Time because everybody was wearing green and black. This goes back to The Twin Factor, because Drakken made her wear Shego's outfit.
You know, I might be thinking too much. But it's necessary for what I'm doing.

Re the trivia game thing that dracko proposed... I would be very willing to help you guys out with that.  I'm very knowledgeable about Kim Possible (3.5 years as a KP fan don't go wrong). I'm also planning to spend Spring Break week (the week of the 11th!) having a Kim Possible marathon of my own design (I do that every couple of months because it helps with my love of the show), so I could use a few things to do over that break, aside from writing fanfiction and being bored. |

If you can help us make this orgainized it would be very appreciated. as i said, the hardest thing will be to organize the data, making the page to quiz peopple will not be hard. to help keep this organized as people submit info i made up an excel spread sheet which will make things easier to follow www.kpfanworld.com/uploads/Book1.xls |

I'll probably make them into three word docs (easier for me) and then send the documents via email to you.
I understand Excel and it looks easy, I'm just not comfortable around it.

not a problem, as long as it is organized in about the same way |

I made the table already for you wallace. You'll probably want session info to keep track of scores and whatever... If you want to try it, go for it It will require some randomization functions.. and those are tricky   |

This is to let everyone know that I'm on vacation from the trivia for the next two weeks so my wrist gets a bit better. It's been hurting a lot since I've been working extra to get it done on a weekly basis. I also want to reconnect with other things I've been putting off like friends and family, a movie or two, sleep, and maybe a video game I'll get to squeeze in.

If you want to try it, go for it It will require some randomization functions.. and those are tricky UPDATE: I recruited some additional PHP help because the randomize functions are so tricky.. and now I can say they really are tricky... I'll be working on the page this weekend some... We need at least a few questions for at least one difficulty level in order for me to test it out, though... And they do need to be multiple choice for this kind of activity.... |

So, please.... getting one or two questions is easy, but for this to be fun, we need a good collection of questions, so everyone submit some trivia!  |

I can do adequate testing with 3 or 4 questions, minimum -- Preferably more. |

you could Temporarily add fake questions and such for testing purposes. I was not worried about the code since it appears you are working on the randomization functions, and you said they are quite hard/tricky.

Just wait until you see it You have no idea... Anyway, yeah I could... bu then I'd have to reset the table when we were ready for questions... |

Tomorrow, I'll be starting work on the trivia game. I have a few hard bonus questions in my head that I might include. I'll prolly be done by Friday.
EDIT: 9:40 pm, 3/13/07:
I've done quite a bit. I've watched 19 episodes of the series, including 4 halfies, and I have a ton of questions. I've used a LOT of paper. 8 questions fit on one wide ruled paper, and Here are the pages as of right now for each of the difficulties:
Easy: 4 pages
Medium: 10 pages
Hard: 13 pages
I'm assuming that's about the amount of pages handwritten I've used. As soon as I'm done with this, I'll see how many episodes I can get through till about midnight or so and then go to bed. Wake up, type up the next few pages, and then go on. I'll update in 24 hours.
