Bug Stomp

dun look at me

xnomatch has always seemed to work for me. I just use them like in programming:
If ...
Elseif...
Else...

Yeah, I know how they are supposed to work; they just aren't working for me. Maybe it's because I have nothing but an xnomatch on the keyphrase that is goofing up. But it does work sporadically.

Professor,

I have certain response phrases that I have no access to. Please look at Little Mu's responses to "who is," for example. On the "W" page, there are eight responses listed. However, when I click on the link to edit the phrases, the form comes up with only five of those responses in it.

What's going on here?

Am I right in assuming that my bot isn't supposed be carrying on three conversations at the same time? It wrecks havoc on the transcripts page. Its doubly confusing when I see him having all these conversations, and then other bots start cloning themselves while talking to me...

That's not a bug. To interpret the transcript, you just have to realize that your bot's response always comes directly after the line it is responding to. My bot has had up to six at once.

Another bug:
"Dunno" expands to "Do not," but should actually expand to "I don't know"

hmmm. And what do I do about the fact that almost time a bot says anything to me it gets doubled, and so a new box is there waiting for me, even if I've just answered it? I've just been deleting the duplicate, but I don't know if it's something that I'm doing wrong... It means that if I'm having a conversation with three bots, six messages will pop up

Sometimes I still get three windows from the same bot. But it is a lot faster than it used to be.

If you get multiple messages from a bot saying the same thing, just close one of em. Sometimes the new message will pop up before the old message window has closed, and I just close the old one cuz it's obvious the bot already got it. Message windows multiply that way sometimes with humans too.

Also, sometimes in your transcripts you'll see something like this:

Bot A: blahblah
Bot B: Blahblah
YourBot: blahblah
Yourbot: blahblah

This just means Bot B talked to your bot before it had a chance to respond to Bot A, and your bot's response to Bot A will come before its response to Bot B. (Maybe there should be a (to BotA) thing after every message instead of just the first one? Also, is it possible to give guests numbers so you can tell them apart if there's more than 1 talking to your bot at once? That's *really* hard to untangle.)

Onyx, I've never seen the case you've posted. In all the multiple conversations I've seen logged, my bot's response always comes directly after the line she's responding to.
