//
// changes in v1.1:
// · Added 'bonus round' (optional) Every once in a while the game starts
// in 'bonus round' mode. The score added to the winner is randomly
// more than 3 and less than 7 points instead of a single point.
// Just to increase adrenaline :P
// · Added 'winning score' (optional) When a player reaches this score,
// he wins the game and the score board is cleared for a new start.
// · Added 'top players' (optional) Only shows best top n players in
// the score board, but the whole score board remains in memory.

// description:
// Multiplayer hint/scramble game (v1.1) for AmIRC.
//
// The scrambler gives out an answer and a question. The answer
// is displayed scrambled to the players and the question is
// clear. The first one to find the answer receives a point.
// For entering the game, the player just needs to answer a question
// and win a point. That puts him in the score board and in the game.
// No other operations are required. The score board clears whenever
// the scrambler wants it, or when 'timeout loss' or 'score melting'
// throws away all of the players, or when a player reaches
// 'winning score' (wins the game).
//
// The game starts and ends when a player answers correctly. However, the
// score board remains in memory. There are also a few tricks to make it
// more interesting and more active like 'timeouts', 'score melting' and
// 'bonus round'. Also an ability to show only the best players in the
// score board instead of all of them.
// Public displays are very few making it more compact and fun without
// flooding the channels.
//
// usage:
// Put Hint.amirx in AmIRC:Rexx/
// /ALIAS Hint /RX Hint
//
// /HINT answer : question [-n]
// answer: The answer to be displayed scrambled. It can contain spaces
// and such.
// question: The question to be displayed clear. Put anything you want.
// -n: Game starts normally but the score board is cleared completely.
//
// demo:
// /HINT Rolling Stones : Famous rock band.
