A Quotes Quiz Discord Bot

This bot is built in Python using the discord.py package
The bot sends quotes on a customizable timer into your chosen channel
Users reply to guess the character that said the line, the bot responds to confirm whether the guess is correct or not
A running score is kept
The bot accepts a few commands to prompt actions

All packages in requirements.txt installed
A Discord bot created and added to the relevant server using the Discord Developer Portal
A .env file created as per the example, and stored in the same directory as the other files

Simply clone the repo, add your .env file, and run bot.py
This script will need to continue running for the bot to work - a cloud platform or Raspberry Pi acting as a server is ideal
The bot will send a new quote to the channel every N hours (as specified in .env)
/logs subdirectory will be created on the first run, to store the following files -
- history.json to track sent quotes and their status (answered/not answered)
- scores.json to keep a running scoreboard
- Quotes.log for basic runtime logging

Credit to https://fangj.github.io/Quotes/ for their hand transcribed scripts
The data was scraped, cleaned, and cut down to a list of 16 characters (see characters.txt), and quotes at least 65 characters in length
