Is anyone else's bot getting boned by the new "do you" added to the beginning of sentences thing?

Dalchini: Let's find something we have in common - gender, perhaps?
Westerlin Man: I've heard about people who let us find something we have in common...

the keyphrase in question, of course, is 'do you'

I've run into some of that.

Jaden: Hello. My name's Jaden. It's nice to meet you.
Frizella: Really? Billgeratter thinks *you're* your name's Jaden.

Frizella's response is for keyphrase "you are (adjartnoun)". ??

I'm so glad I found this message board, because I ran into another problem If I ask my bot, "I don't know, are you?", he'll respond using the "I (verb)" keyphrase, when I have an "I do not know" and an "I do not (verb)" keyphrase also! In "debug" it changes the phrase to "do I do know". any suggestions?

Ok, so I've already posted this, but it's really beginning to make me want to rip my hair out... >.< lol

i have arrived...there seems to be something going on because of the comma followed by a question. if you want it to respond to the i don't know part of that statement try adding "do i do (verb)" to the "i do not (verb)" keyword. This might not work though because "i do (verb)" might also pick it up, but you might be able to use a regular expression to prevent this. hmmm it should be noted though that "i don't know. Are you?" doesn't seem to have the same problem...

Oh well, I'll just leave it like it is and hope no one uses commas XD

Am I the only one who thinks that using decimals in the rank is a good idea? (hint to The Professor *cough*)

Well, not sure. The engine adds rankings based on the length too, so it's not necessarily the one you ranked highest that will be picked.

I'm already confounded enough with the -50 to 50 range- I hate to admit it but, I'm afraid decimals would make my head explode. lol

Just what we need, another missing head!

I'm gonna go with ezzer: no decimals, please!!

I have a degree in Pol. Science and French. I DON'T do math.

Those of us of the Right Brain persuasion agree with DaMoyre.

I've arrived, if what you reported about the debug is correct, then it sounds like a grammar processing error that's being caused by the "are you" at the end of the sentence. I can't think of a workaround for that, except maybe building a seek for "are you" after the statement that provoked this question. (It's obviously not a sentence that's going to be said unless the bot asks "Am I (something)?")

Otherwise, as long as your "I do not know" is catching statements like "I do not know the circumference of the Earth," it's probably working okay.
