Some quiz booth details

Here's some more details on the upcoming Quiz Booth. Details subject at any time.

- 15 questions total. Each question answered correctly is worth 1 point.

- Questions are multi-choice. 4 answers to choose from.

- Answering a question wrong eliminates you from the Quiz Booth. You'll receive half the points you earned.

- The quiz can only be taken by someone who is part of a team, and didn't participate in the other team-only games.

- Quiz can be done at any time after it's open, but you risk missing out on bonus points.

- While in the quiz booth, you'll not be able to enter any commands except the commands to pick an answer or to use a lifeline.

- Difficulty increases after 5 questions, and 10 questions. I'm trying to make the 11-15 questions really tough, so you've been warned. I think most people will get 1-5.

- There are bonus points attached to the 5th question, 10th question and 15th question. 3, 4, and 5 bonus points respectively. These points will decrease by 1 every time a participant reaches that threshold. i.e. if I take the quiz and get to question 5, I'll receive 1 point for the question and the 3 bonus points. Whoever passes that question next will only get 2 bonus points.

- You have three lifelines available to you, that can only be used once:

Fifty-fifty
-----------
Removes 2 of the wrong answers.

Skip
----
Skips the current question, missing out on its points and
any bonus points the question has attached to it.

Savepoint
---------
This only takes effect AFTER you have correctly answered your
current question. If you get the question right, your current
points will be marked as safe. Safe points will not be halved
if you get a subsequent question wrong.
