Needing to write a routine to score a multiple choice quiz based on score, time and number playing. Something like the scoring used in the Funtrivia site. Does anyone know the formula they use?
The main two factors will be correct answers out of 10 and the time taken, which will produce a score. From this score points will be awarded to the player depending on the number playing. If only 1 playing they get 1 point if 30 playing then the top scorer gets 30 points.
The time is there to ensure no Googling, i.e. 10/10 in 500 secs will score lower than 5/10 in 50 secs.
