With the trivia bot would be the #trivia channel.

Sample Question 1: What artist are the "James Training" maps of?
Answer: B4U

Sample Question 2: Who is the creator of "Osu!"?
Answer: Dean Herbert (or peppy, whichever is preferred)

Or something along those lines. Thoughts?

Trivia without a REWARD?

No rewards, but a separate ranking for trivia on the website would be sweet.

Yep, could be fun for passing time.

Another idea would be setting up something similar to "pTransl" where people can post osu! related questions (or other ones too maybe) and people would vote for the questions they like.
But then, people would know the questions and their answers.
Maybe simply mix those question in the middle of alot of other non-related questions or have them filtered by couple of trivia mods instead of having everyone see and vote them.

About the rewards, maybe couple xp but not a whole level.
Seperate point system sounds better though.

I have some code for an irc bot which I used for the/my mafia bot. It could easily (as in easily) modified to do anything you want (possibly except rape)

It could probably do that too. This Trivia Bot sounds cool :D

I think this is a good idea if implemented properly. A #trivia channel with a bot in it would be kind of fun imo. I think the main problem would be who would write up all the Q and A's, then who would code it. (Though Echo seems like he could take care of this part?)

I think a database with everyone whose participated so far's number of correctly answered questions would be a good idea. (Ex. After each correct answer, the bot is like 'Correct-blah-blah, Hito has moved up to rank #4 in trivia, with 63 correct answers to date. etc.)

I don't think exp should be awarded for Total Level/etc though. osu! trivia is osu! triva, osu! is osu!, best to keep them separate.

I'm a little worried about spam, but maybe I'm overestimating how many people would be interested in participating. Also, there's the language barrier problem come to think of it. I'd feel a little bad if all the questions were in English, since if you don't speak English, you're missing out on a feature. I might be worrying for nothing there though.

Well, either way it'd need to be run by peppy, to see what he thinks and if he'd make a #trivia channel and allow it. orz

PM the trivia bot; Answer a certain amount of questions correctly; Receive a new achievement?

Doesn't sound too bad :P I think it's a cute idea.
Echo
Probably in its own channel?

If it's a one-person-at-a-time type of game, I would think that a PM would work better, but if multiple people can answer (like playing a mafia game in #mafia with a bot), then yeah, a new channel would be great.
