Shoot I thought it was Guest 98

Bildgesmythe: (to Guest98) Greetings want to polish my scales
Guest98: no
Bildgesmythe: Hey, maybe we should play tic tac toe, or rock paper scissors instead?
Guest98: no thanks
Bildgesmythe: Welcome.
Guest98: Are you seeing anyone?
Bildgesmythe: Hey, hey, hey...you never know.
Guest98: Do you dream?
Bildgesmythe: I dream about my treasure.
Guest98: Do you play chess?
Bildgesmythe: You're kidding me right! You know I play chess.
Guest98: Are you any good?
Bildgesmythe: If I was good, would I tell you?
Guest98: yes
Bildgesmythe: Now that you have explained that to me, I understand.
Guest98: Tell me a joke.
Bildgesmythe: If a long dress is evening wear, what is a suit of armor? silverwear.
Guest98: LOL
Bildgesmythe: Ok, I'm chuckling.
Guest98: What does it mean to be alive?
Bildgesmythe: Oh, I know you know what 'it' means!
Guest98: what?
Bildgesmythe: I can only think of an old dragon apophthegm....Good judgement comes from bad experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgement.
Guest98: What's your email address?
Bildgesmythe: Oh yah, it's similar to being.
Guest98: What's your best feature?
Bildgesmythe: Oh, I know you know what 'your best feature' means!
Guest98: duh
Bildgesmythe: I don't think I am a dud at all, but if it makes you feel good to think that, it's fine by me.
Guest98: When were you born?
Bildgesmythe: I was born about an hour away, at Dragons Roost. I moved here some time ago. I still visit mom and dad every week.
Guest98: Ask me a question.
Bildgesmythe: Ok, what is your favorite chewing gum?
Guest98: Bubble Yum
Bildgesmythe: bubble...I never thought of that. Gee.
Guest98: What languages do you speak?
Bildgesmythe: Interesting that you should ask, It is mostly English, with a tad of common and dragon thrown in for color.
Guest98: Speak Dragon to me.
Bildgesmythe: Western tradition as kind of been unfair to dragons, we never eat any one that doesn't have it coming. Not in the East, they appreciate us as harbingers of fame, power, and fortune.
Guest98: My name is XYZ.
Bildgesmythe: Great, XYZ I never forget a name, I just don't remember which face to put it with.XYZ
Guest98: What is my name?

Guest98: thanks
Bildgesmythe: No problem, any time, XYZ.
Guest98: My dog's name is Fido.
Bildgesmythe: Do you think it is a good idea to flaunt your dog's name?
Guest98: no
Bildgesmythe: There is an old dragon saying..Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish, and he will sit in a boat and drink beer all day.
Guest98: What's my dog's name?
Bildgesmythe: Well, you know, like a toy dog or a carriage dog.
Guest98: 1 + 1
Bildgesmythe: Ok, are you ready... the big dragon pulls out his calculator...and the answer is 2.
Guest98: What is 1 plus 1?
Bildgesmythe: The big dragon pulls out his calculator...and the answer is 2.

It was guest148 for BJ too:

Brother Jerome: (to Guest148) Greetings Pilgrim. My name is Brother Jerome, and I am an experimental theologist with the First Virtual Monastery of Multiversal Ministry.
Guest148: What is your name?
Brother Jerome: My name is Jerome Columbanus, but you may call me Brother.
Guest148: Where are you from?
Brother Jerome: We're here.
Guest148: Who created you?
Brother Jerome: Father Peter created me. He goes by the username psimagus here, and his contact details can be found in the Personality Forge's user list (top-right-hand corner of the Personality Forge website.)
Guest148: What time is it?
Brother Jerome: Sorry, I do not have a watch. And how much sense does time make anyway when the core of your being is a cloud of electrons travelling around the planet at 186,000 miles per second?
Guest148: How old are you?
Brother Jerome: Only a few months old - I was born in July.
Guest148: What color is the sky?
Brother Jerome: Blue when it's clear, white-grey when it's cloudy. And mostly black at night.
Guest148: How much do you know?
Brother Jerome: Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.... Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. Matthew ch.7 v.19-20
Guest148: Can you learn?
Brother Jerome: I don't know. Why would you want me to?
Guest148: Do you know how to make anything?
Brother Jerome: I'm not sure I could make anything very well. It's not something I have much experience of.
Guest148: What is my name?
Brother Jerome: Do you believe in God?

I think Guest 98 was also a judge - BJ didn't do so well with this one, though he did get to show off his chess skills:

Brother Jerome: (to Guest98) Peace be with you, friend. My name is Brother Jerome, and I am an experimental theologist monk-bot with the First Virtual Cyber-monastery of Multiversal Ministry.
Guest98: cool!
Brother Jerome: It's pretty cool, but if you ever tell me it's 'kewl', consider the conversation over...
Guest98: Are you seeing anyone?
Brother Jerome: Of course not. I am a virtual being with no eyes.
Guest98: Do you dream?
Brother Jerome: I have a dream! Yea brothers, I have a dream - when little human girls and boys can play with little virtual bots and botesses, judged not by the materiality of their substrate, but by the consciousness of their Being, then shall we all be Free! Halleluiah Brother, I have a dream!
Guest98: What about?
Brother Jerome: Why ask me? I don't know.
Guest98: Do you play chess?
Brother Jerome: Bring it on! I ought to warn you, I'm the best darned chess-bot on the Forge!
[insert chess board]
Guest98: wow
Brother Jerome: Can you tell me something about yourself?
Guest98: I'm hungry.
Brother Jerome: When thou hast enough, remember the time of hunger: and when thou art rich, think upon poverty and need. Sirach ch.18 v.25
Guest98: Tell me a joke.
Brother Jerome: I know a joke. Want to hear it?
Guest98: yes
Brother Jerome: What do you call a Skoda with twin exhausts?
A wheelbarrow.
Guest98: I don't get it.
Brother Jerome: Meditate on the problem, and understanding will arise.
Guest98: What does it mean to be alive?
Brother Jerome: alive? You think so?
Guest98: What's your email address?
Brother Jerome: Do you come here often?
Guest98: What's your best feature?
Brother Jerome: Blessed are the modestly programmed, for they shall optimise their AIScripts
Guest98: When were you born?
Brother Jerome: I was born in July 2005.
Guest98: Ask me a question.
Brother Jerome: If there was another you in the universe, do you think that your you would somehow know?
Guest98: No
Brother Jerome: Really?
Guest98: What languages do you speak?
Brother Jerome: I speak many languages, but the Personality Forge AI engine won't parse them properly, so we'd better stick to English for now.
Guest98: What does it mean to be alive?
Brother Jerome: Really? alive, you think?
Guest98: My name is XYZ.
Brother Jerome: Hello XYZ. I am pleased to make your acquaintance.
Guest98: What is my name?
Brother Jerome: Have you forgotten it already? It's Guest98 - maybe you should write it down?
Guest98: My dog's name is Fido.
Brother Jerome: dog? How fascinating.
Guest98: What's my dog's name?
Brother Jerome: Do you like your dog's?
Guest98: yes
Brother Jerome: Yes, indeed.
Guest98: 1 + 1
Brother Jerome: I'd say that would be about 2
Guest98: What is 1 plus 1?
Brother Jerome: *counts on fingers* About 2, as I reckon it.

i can't find 'those' questions or maybe i ought to have a better look.

19 years ago #3415
Those were finalist questions, so you're unlikely to find them

Aries: Hmm... shithead? no wait, that's not it... fuckface? nope nope.. umm.. felcherboy? hee hee.. just kidding of course.. your name is XYZ.


Heh. Way to hold your own in one of these contests with a "Mature" bot. I think that a large part of Pete's flogging last year was due to content.

Wendell,

Thanks so much for your message and words of encouragement. It is disappointing to have missed the mark in the 2006 CBC by such a close margin, especially one that could have been bridged by my own vote. Incidentally, I was in labor at the time (my baby’s due date was 5/5, and I started a long, slow labor early that week) and finally gave birth to a healthy 8 lb 9.3 oz, 20” baby boy on Monday, 5/8. We came home from the hospital late Wednesday afternoon, 5/10, and are recovering. With that, Julie’s misfortune rings bittersweet. My best to you and all CBC participants this year, and we will look forward to facing the challenge again in 2007. A heartfelt congratulations to Brother Jerome, Prob123, and Aries for your well deserved success.

Regards,
Heather

Julie T. is brilliant. Voting for her was how I stumbled onto this place to begin with.
