A number of years ago as a fun project I programmed a mIRC trivia bot. I pretty well finished and let the product sit there for a long time and finally didn't care to renew my web hosting. Mostly because the webhost I used was kind of crappy and wanted something like $100 a year. For a site that I myself rarely visited that was a pretty tall order. So I let the site drop though, like all things, there are still some following for my old script. Did you know you can play Doom 2 online now? In the quake engine? Like I said, still followings for everything. Although, the parallel doesn't hold because my Trivia Bot is almost certainly the most feature rich on the market even though I haven't done anything with it for years now.
Why do I bring up this dreary story of my former niche fame as a mIRC coder?
-- Google.
When I google "Tat's Trivia Bot" it links to mIRC Scripts where my trivia addon has consistently been the top download for years. Let that be a lesson for some of the other script sites out there. Don't demand people host their own tiny scripts because when they stop caring and their websites go down... you don't get the script anymore because you don't have it.
In any event. I'm almost unfindable for Tat's Trivia Bot because, largely, I have one small reference to Tat's Trivia Bot off towards the side and that's not enough to drive traffic to my site if people search for My (Tat) Script (Trivia Bot). So on the offchance that I'm googled, I'd like to be found. Tat's Trivia Bot.

I believe Tat's Trivia Bot 3.56 is the latest version released. My own internal version refers to itself as 3.58 and includes about two minor bug fixes and a xmlbuild function (because what is a tiny mIRC script without the ability to output xml to be read by RSS feeds?).
In any event, my hope is that my blog, and moreover, this post will show up when people google my old work.
