Join IRC Call the BBS

A standing invitation to play.

Every Friday at 8 PM America/New_York in #events. The bot announces the opening automatically. Bring a project, play trivia or challenge a BBS door game. Staff attendance is not guaranteed.

Use !trivia, !answer and !scores. Registered-account points survive bot restarts. Weekly standings begin Monday; all-time scores keep accumulating. Guests can play without entering the league.

League rules. Friendly competition, no cash prizes. BBS doors keep their own scores; results are shared voluntarily in #events.

Only correct answers from identified IRC accounts enter these public standings. No chat transcripts or IP addresses are retained by the scoring bot.

Only subjects from the staff-controlled public Notices board are announced. Private mail, private boards and message bodies are excluded.

Anonymous connection samples, collected once per minute for seven days. One person can have multiple connections; persistent member sessions count while their browsers are closed. Known service bots are excluded.

History begins when collection is enabled; no earlier activity is invented.

Green: BBS · Cyan: IRC. Availability percentages describe observed samples, not a service guarantee.

DOVE-Net preparation

DOVE-Net connects BBS message areas with other communities. Local areas are prepared, but transfers remain disabled until the separate upstream networking account and secure connection are verified. IRC channels work independently.
