-<span style="font-size:120%;">'''#FAQ'''</span>
+* '''When does the quiz start?'''
-<br/>
+:Players can use the '''!next''' command to see when the next quiz starts, the quiz is hourly, starting at XX:00 UTC.
-'''1) When does quiz start?'''
+* '''Why is the quiz so fast?'''
-<br/>
+:When a question is displayed, the chat is locked for a few seconds so that everyone can see the question, then the chat is unlocked and people can start to type answers. When a player enters the ''correct'' answer, the chat remains open for 2-3 seconds before closing. Players must be correct and ''quick'' in order for their answer to reach VortexBot.
-Players can use the '''!next''' command to see when the next quiz starts, the quiz is hourly, starting at XX:00 UTC.
+* '''Why did I get a message saying, "Your message could not be delivered." even though I typed my answer quick enough?'''
-<br/>
+:This error occurs when the quizzer sends their message in time ''but'' the message reaches Discord too late and the channel is already locked by then and thus the error message.
-'''2) Why is the quiz so fast?'''
+* '''Does spelling matter?'''
-<br/>
+:Yes, spelling matters. For example, if the answer to a question is '''"Popplio"''', typing '''"poplio"''' will be marked wrong, and you will not receive any coins.
-When a question is displayed, the chat is locked for a few seconds so that everyone can see the question, then the chat is unlocked and people can start to type answers, when the ''correct'' answer is typed in by any player the chat remains open for 2-3 seconds before closing, players must be correct and ''quick'' in order for their answer to reach the Vortex-Bot.
+:However, it is important to note that answers are not case sensitive, and that spaces and special characters are ignored. For example, if the answer is '''"Hidden Power (Ghost)"''', VortexBot will accept '''"hidden power (ghost)"''', '''"hiddenpowerghost"''', '''"hidden/power/ghost"''', and other related combinations.
-<br/>
+* '''How many footprints are there to learn?'''
-'''3) Why did I get a message saying, "Your message could not be delivered." even though I typed my answer quick enough?'''
+:The quiz contains questions about footprints of Pokémon up to Generation V, with the exception of:
-<br/>
+:* Pokémon that levitate or fly, which do not leave footprints
-If the chat closes ''right'' as the player sends their answer, they will get a message from the Clyde-bot saying their message was not delivered, this may occur due to a slow connection or because the player wasn't fast enough and their message didn't go through in time.
+:* Pokémon that have small dots as footprints, since they are indistinguishable
-<br/>
+:Players can refer to Bulbapedia's [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/List_of_Pokémon_by_footprint list of Pokémon by footprint] for a complete list of all footprints.
-'''4) Do spellings matter?'''
-<br/>
-'''Yes.''' It is most important to get the spelling right for each and every answer you give or else the Vortex-Bot will assume it as incorrect even if the error is small, if answer to a question is '''"popplio"''' then it can't be '''"poplio"''' or anything like that, as the Vortex-Bot will assume it to be incorrect. It is also important to note that the answers ''aren't'' case-sensitive, they can be "PoPPlio" or "POPPLIO", the Vortex-Bot will accept these as correct answers, on a similar note, special characters don't effect your answer, answering "Popplio." or "Popplio/" ''won't'' be incorrect. Numbers on the other hand ''will'' mess up your answer, "Po9pplio" or "popplio0" will be assumed as incorrect by the Vortex-Bot.
