Basically, I want to hold contests, where the whole room is moderated,
and the script would randomly pick someone to voice to answer a trivia
question to with a prize. I've seen them used before, but I can't find
one anywehre.

I googled "IRC TTS", i found something, i think [this
is](http://www.jibble.org/speechbot/) what you were looking for.
Also, TTS stands for Text-To-Speech.

Do you already have a bot you're using to run the trivia game?
Implementing a random voice feature seems like it should be fairly
straight forward. You might need to assign each user a number on join
and have the bot pick a number or something but it shouldn't be
terribly difficult.   If you can be a little more specific someone
might be able to help.

Not that kind of voice

Not voice as in audible, dummy.. I mean voice as in voicing someone in
a moderated channel and that person can type. Without voice, nobody
can type into an IRC channel that is moderated. Do you even IRC?

That could work. I may tinker with some scripting to see what I can
come up with. I just wonder if I should use an INI file, or variables
for the numbers though. Variables may be harder, because it could lag
the bot. So, INI may be better. Or, I could a txt file. I have written
several scripts using INIs and TXTs.. so, maybe I'll look back through
them and something may click that'll help.
Thanks for the idea.
