During the next week the Contest Conversations will take place (if they havent already) so I'm not going to touch the AI Engine during this period to ensure everything is optimal.

Contest conversations as in the judges take rounds at talking to the bot? Those the same questions, or more of a "personal" chat?
It's a personal chatty chat. And one guy chats with all the bots and later the judges and the public votes on it.
I've asked him to log in, but it might be just as good if he comes in as a guest or uses the direct-chat page. That will improve the flow.
The direct chat page is better if the user already knows they're talking to a bot (which is the case for the contest). But I still think the pop-up chat windows are better for the forge in general, since it gives the impression the "being" your chatting with needs a little time to type the response... Just the double pop-ups that are a bit of a pain, but just a bit.
