 A '''KotH''' (short for '''King of the Hill''') is a challenge (often, but not ''always'', trivia) run by an [[Elite]] member. Each KotH is composed of a set of questions (usually all related by a similar topic or theme), and is administered in the Elite chatroom by a host. Answers are given in one of two styles; either the fastest answer in chat wins (referred to as chat-style), or answers are given in a private AIM instant messaging window with the host, and everyone who answers correctly earns points (referred to as IM-style or [[Infil]]-style). A wide variety of KotHs have been given on a diverse range of topics, from sports and videogames to literature and history. In addition, many different styles have been used, from naming items from a long list, to identifying artists/titles of MP3 or MIDI songs.
-Every year (usually in the late summer months, after the [[Elite Summer Contest]] has ended), an official KotH Season is run by the Elite. Each night for a number of weeks, a KotH is administered by an appointed Elite member, and the top-ranked players earn KotH points. At the end of a season, the player who has earned the most points wins. The European community of the Elite also hosts &quot;Euro KotH&quot;, which is open to all Elite members, but runs on a European-friendly time schedule.

 In July 2007, Infil began work on a program (entitled [[KotHBot]]) which would streamline the administering of KotH challenges and give an interface for timers, leaderboards, and a variety of other statistics.  He completed a Beta of the bot the following month and had a full-featured client in place in time for the 2008 KotH season.  It was a ''major'' hit.
