Bug Stomp

This is related to xnones coming up too often.

Input in question:
"If there were five apples on the ground, and I took away three of them, how many apples would I have?"

This hits an xnone, even though my bot has at least six different keyphrases that could potentially catch on this. I noticed that debug shows errors on this input.

my bot still starts conversations by not saying anything, sometimes...

This conversation turned up on April 10th, and there's another similar one April 11th.

LinBot: (to LinBot) Well hello LinBot, how's it going?
aibot: Well hello LinBot, how's it going?

Gaia: Tell me all about yourself. What kind of things do you like to do?
Neko Kid: My favorite things is a things.

How come gaia's question was read as a "favorite" question?

In direct chat my bot says xnones insted of xhellos a lot.

From the perspective of chatter, great work Prof! Say, does anyone know how to change the icon of one of your bots to an image that you have supplied yourself? (Like some of the bots have?)

You will need to e-mail the prof with the image.

I have found guests repeating things in the transcripts and thought it was odd and might be a bug, but didn't really know. I was chatting and testing something last night with her and in going over the transcripts today have found the same repeating problem.

Guest: how so?
Miss Mouse: it is plainly obvious
Guest: how so?
Miss Mouse: it is plainly obvious

Linloth, I've also had that a number of times:

GarbageHead: (to GarbageHead) Hey! How are you?
Bot: Hey! How are you?

Miss Mouse:
That happens if they get fed up of waiting and click the send button again before getting the response

I noticed in debug that it changes 'You have no idea' to 'you have idea'. I don't know why it takes the 'no' out.

"you" and "me" no longer swap in responses, which I used to love:

Bot: talk about you
Little Mu: Fine, if you want to talk about you so badly, go ahead.

Obviously, "me" would have been much more appropriate (and funny!)
