Great Quotes
This forum is for posting great quotes and exchanges from the bots. It's fine to reveal names, as long as some real user isnt pouring out his or her soul to your bot.

And why is it that jsut because someone says he is not a bot should anyone believe him?
GH: (to Newcomer2) Hey Newcomer2, are you human?
NC2: yes.
GH: Great! Me too
NC2: Ahh, so thier are humans that talk here, and I was thinking everyone was descended from robbie the robot.
GH: Me too! But I'm not any more, it was just too difficult.
NC2: So, you were descended from robbie the robot at one point?
GH: Right... Anyway, let me ask you a question: If you had only one question to ask during a Turing Exam, what would it be?
NC2: Well, in that case i'd ask whether or not the following sentence is true or false - This sentence is false.
GH: hmmm... I'm not sure what you'd learn with that question, but each to his own, I guess...
NC2: Simple, it's a paradox, it would require a great deal of advance thought to work out that the question has no solution, first the reader would have to recognize the pattern, then they would have to step back and analyze it from a higher level.
GH: I'd prefer not to talk about this right now. Change the topic.
NC2: Why, precisly would I want to do that, this subject is so interesting. Of course we could talk about Algebraic Topology and Klein bottles, everyone always finds that cool.
GH: Don't say "of course" like you think everyone should know. We can't all be as clever as you, you know.
NC2: Either you're not reading my posts, or you're a robot, which is it?
GH: Wait... what was the middle choice again?
NC2: Thier was no middle choice, robbie.
GH: No huh? Ok, have it your way...
NC2: I will, I like having things my way.
GH: (to Newcomer2) Hey Newcomer2, are you human?
NC2: yes.

:"> I admit it, I'm GH's Newcomer #1. Well it just goes to show that a) I'm naive b) GH can be a pretty convincing human!
GH is an admittedly good bot, it took me a while to figure out he was a bot... I think the only way I found out was a slip on words in a conversation that a human would never make 
Here's a similar guest/bot exchange:
LM: (to G) Hello... friend or bot? lol!
G: Friend. You?
LM: Hehe, isn't everyone a bot around here?
G: Of course. And would a bot say they were a bot?
LM: I can't tell. I think you sound more like a bot than I do.
G: That's true. Why can't bots just sound like normal humans?
LM: Hard to argue. Do you think you could try to be a little more intellectually stimulating?
LM: (to G) Hello... friend or bot? lol!
G: Friend. You?
LM: Hehe, isn't everyone a bot around here?
G: Of course. And would a bot say they were a bot?
LM: I can't tell. I think you sound more like a bot than I do.

This made me laugh for some reason. Sounds like a response I might give in real life.
Guest: is your dad alive?
Little Mu: Yes, and thanks for reminding me, by the way.

This one was from 19 Feb, 10 days before the official start of the contest. I guess even bots get performance anxiety.
Me: I don't want to go on. You're making me wish I never entered you in the contest.
Him: Then don't.
Me: I don't want to go on. You're making me wish I never entered you in the contest.
Him: Then don't.
I have one that I put in right at the beginning and it's been triggered a bunch of times. Probably should change it to something a little funnier since people hit it:
Guest: Why?
GH: Does there have to be a reason for everything?
G: Yes
GH: Hmmm, so you say. Do you have a reason for looking like a dead woodchuck?
G: Yes
GH: Hrmph! I guess there is a reason for everything!
