Scoring bonuses

When you score a buzz with a positive score, the bot will post a message like "Bonus for TU 10". The bot always assumes that bonuses are 3 parts and are worth 10 points each. There are a few ways to score a bonus:

Splits

You can specify the split by putting / between the bonus part scores. For example, 10/0/10 will give 10 points each to the first and third parts of the bonus.

Binary

You can specify the split in binary. For example, 110 will give 10 points to the first and second parts of the bonus.

Single number

If the team got every part correct or incorrect, you can use 30 or 0, respectively.
