Code:
mob/proc/key2()

    var/choice = input(usr,"2 times 3?","Question") in list("2","4","6","I don't know.")
    
    if(choice == "6")
        usr << "Correct."
        usr:MakeGold()
        usr:GiveExp()
        var/answer = 1   /* unused var, trying to set something up for a verb to check for in an /if/else setup basically asking the verb to identify a correct responce to allow the verb action to take place. */
    else if(choice == "I don't know.")
        usr << "Study study study."
    else
        usr << "Incorrect."



mob/verb/pop_quiz()
    Question()


mob/proc/Question()
    var/number = rand(1,10)
    if(number == 1)
        usr:key1()
    if(number == 2)
        usr:key2()
    if(number == 3)
        usr:Question()
    if(number == 4)
        usr:Question()
    if(number == 5)
        usr:Question()
    if(number == 6)
        usr:Question()
    if(number == 7)
        usr:Question()
    if(number == 8)
        usr:Question()
    if(number == 9)
        usr:Question()
verb
        attack(mob/M as mob in oview(1))
            set category = "Combat"     //attack a mob within 1 tile of you
            pop_quiz()
            if(answer == 1)
                usr << "You attack [M]!"    //send this message to the usr
                oview() << "[usr] attacks [M]!" //send this message to everybody else
                var/damage = rand(1,10)        //assign a random # to a new variable
                world << "[damage] damage!" //tell the damage to the world
                M:HP -= damage          //take away the damage from M
                M:DeathCheck()          //check for death with a proc
            else usr << "Nothing happens."

I'd do it like this:

verb/attack(var/mob/m in oview(1))
   var/mob/player/p = usr
   //the line above is there to define the urs's type and making sure the proc link will work
   //you should replace this with whatever type your normal client mob is or a parent all posible types share
   //in this example the default type is /mob/player
   if(p.quiz())
      //your attack code

mob/player/proc/quiz()
   var/f = rand(1,10)
   var/s = rand(1,10)
   var/num == input(src,"What is [f] + [s]","Question") as null|num
   if(num == f+s) return 1
   else return null

In response to Fint
Hey thanx for the responce and the code help, I got another sys working atm through a diff programing route, but maybe I'll use both for different parts of the game.
