Welcome to Trivia!
Every Sunday, either the Afternoon or Evening trivia team hosts a game of trivia. In an off-site chat, players will be asked a series of questions and given an opportunity to answer and win ebs or bonus prizes.
Here is an FAQ for players both new and experienced to Trivia:
When is Trivia?
Trivia is every Sunday. The Afternoon team will run at 1pm Gametime, while the Evening team will run at 8pm Gametime. Gametime can be found in the upper right hand corner of HEE.
How do I join Trivia?
When the Trivia chat opens, a link will usually be placed into the HEE chat.
You may also visit the official HEE Trivia Forum
HERE. You can find the Link to the Trivia Chatroom on the first post of the first page. It will take you to the HEE Chat Party.
When choosing your name/alias, simply type in your stable name AND your stable number. For example, I would type in "FirstLightFarms-287414".
This allows us to moderate the chat more easily and keep track of prize giving.
When choosing a color, DO NOT CHOOSE BRIGHT RED. This is reserved for the Trivia Team, as chat goes quickly and questions can get lost sometimes. This rule has been enforced for the ease and accessibility of everybody playing.
How do I play Trivia?
Though the chat will sometimes open as early as half-an-hour before Trivia begins, Trivia will not start until 1 or 8pm Gametime on the dot.
Trivia comprises of three separate themes. Each theme will have four questions each, totalling to 12 questions asked per Trivia.
The Question-Asker, with the bright red name, will post a question in chat. Sometimes the question will pop-up, sometimes the chat is going quickly and it fails to do so. This is simply a host website problem and nothing any of us can fix.
When the question is asked, you can click on it. It will be a multiple-choice question. Players are given fifty seconds to answer it.
Answer the question by typing in the letter to the answer you think is correct, AND your stable number.
Answers given without the stable number will not be able to be recorded and the player will not be able to receive credit for a correct answer.
What are the rules of Trivia?
The same rules apply to the Trivia chat that do to the HEE chat. These rules can be found
HERE.Beyond that, we do have a few other rules. These include:
1. No cheating. No discussing answers in chat, no Googling, no calling a friend, nothing. If you do not know the answer, simply make a guess. Discussing Trivia answers can happen AFTER Trivia is over.
2. Your name cannot be bright red.
3. Include your stable number in your name AND in your answers.
4. Have fun!
What happens if I win Trivia?
Each week we have an extremely generous prize pool. The winner of each Theme will receive 100,000 ebs. The second-place player will receive 70,000 ebs. The third-place player will receive 40,000 ebs.
On top of that, we do accept bonus-prize donations. You may send them to the Trivia Team up to half-an-hour before Trivia begins.
We accept items, ebs, broods, horses, art, rerolls, upgrades, and more.
We do discourage straw prizes, as many of our Trivia players are free accounts and cannot use straws, though we are thankful for the generosity of all of our donors.
Is there anything else I should know?
Join the Club! We have a Trivia Club where you can join and receive updates in regards to the schedule, bonus prizes, and more! Each Sunday the Themes and time will be sent out as a Gamemail.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask them below. I and the rest of the Trivia Team will do our best to answer them, as well as update the Guide if necessary.
Thank you for reading, and we will see you next Sunday!
Evening Thunderstorms, Hail Possible
