Here I'll be posting information on various Bot contests that challenge and test a Bot's AI and realism. Feel free to post comments and updates on contests, as well as announcements for new contests.

3 bots I guess...not a great contest to begin with, mostly because how it is run. And the man behind it.
Hahahahaha!! 3!!
Well I guess no one wanted/was willing to make their bot look like they were typing

A lot, if 2002 was any indication:

I glanced at last year's but didn't see stats about applicants. If you're curious about any year other than 2002, go to www.loebner.net and click on Loebner Prize Contest.

Well, it's become a very elite contest then. Any bot has a great chance if the owner is willing to make the fancy interface.
what do they have to do? Is it possible at all that PF bots can enter? Is there a rule website that has the guidelines in English?
Hugh Loebner was having other people manage the contest, but he sued to get control back. Once succeeding at that, he changed the rules. It wouldn't be hard to make the technical changes here, but it would be hard to trust the Loebner people (or person) again. This is supposed to be fun, but we really got jerked around.
If you like, I can whine in detail about how Prof, rexmundi, and I were treated two years ago, but we've been through that already. Check old messages if you're that curious.

I am indeed curious...have any idea about the message numbers? (This is where a search feature in forums sure would come in handy to keep us from repeating questions about things that have already been dicussed.)
I just came back from pouring sand through my fingertips, well, figuratively...I couldn't find those posts. do you have the numbers?
Oh, ezzer already asked. She beat me to it.

From old news. This basically explains it.
September 28, 2002- The Loebner 2002 Debacle
The powers in charge of Loebner 2002 have, through gross inattention to their own contest, forgotten to show up and do the semi-final event. They also forgot to tell SciTrek they were doing it, and they forgot to contact any media or do a webcast. Which really pisses me off because Rexmundi and Butterfly and I went to the no-show "event". Butterfly came all the way from another state. I cant believe this is the "big contest". For updates, see the Bot Contest forum.
ezzer, Charles- you can look in this forum starting around message 904 for the whole, rather sad event.
