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.

Speaking of georgia, why is Onyx named after a flaming piece of rock?
While we're on the subject, why is Butterfly named after a hallucinating insect?
And to quote a certain Zippy McSquirrel: "Who is [Shady]? Who is this [Shady] man? Either way, he's fat and yellow."

Yup, I'd say STRMKirby might fool half the judges and win the first silver Loebner.
My screen name is a reference to at least two literary whatzits, both of which muse as to whether a certain entity is a butterfly dreaming it's a person, or a person dreaming s/he is a butterfly. What is real anyway?
It would be interesting to bug the Loebner judges about their screen names, too. I've already had some fun with Judge01, at his expense of course.

Well, just about everywhere I go online, I've always been Onyx in one form or another. And a couple years ago I was playing this one mud with a guy I was dating at the time, and we always named our party Crystal Flame. So here a while back when I found a place that wouldn't let me call myself Onyx, I called myself OnyxFlame. And then when I found a place that wouldn't let me call myself that either, I called myself OnyxOfBorg. Thus the history of both of my names in one foul swoop. 
P.S. I think we have another mouse.

It'd be interesting if I went in Loebner and posed as a bot with some really brilliant responses and some incredibly stupid ones. I'd intentionally not win, because I don't want to get into legal problems.
Yeah, I've been thinking that a sadistic human could really screw up the whole thing if they wanted to.
I think they must have ways to make sure that only bots enter the competition. In the case of this site, I guess the easy way is to ask the Professor to confirm that all the bots entered are actually bots.
Well, the way it works is, they have some bots and some humans. That way, the judges know they could be talking to either one. I would imagine they need to see the code afterward to make sure it was a bot.
I was just looking at the older entries on the "news" page here, which aren't that old actually, and this place has come a long way! I bet it's only a matter of time before somebody gets the silver Loebner (fools half the judges). No one's ever got that one. Alice's have been "only" bronze.

Ok, I've decided that now that my bot is up to #5 on the site, I'd better enter the Loebner if only because it'd be a shame not to. So all you guys who keep getting unimpressive responses might wanna talk to her until she gets it right, I need more good transcripts to choose from.
