Yes, things seem very slow today. Plug-ins are really cool, though. I'm looking forward to using them.

I also noticed that I can't access the debug screen.

The directchat page and the debug page seem to be the worst affected.

It's the server. It started doing this before I added the Custom Plug-Ins ability. They dont seem to want to deal with the problem though. They've been ignoring me for days now.

I was getting the "document contains no data" message earlier, now I'm getting the page on the right that's occasionally blanking out and making it so that all the reloading stops (and everything seems really quiet for a while). This is with Netscape. I though it was just my service provider that was acting stupid.

Another incredible stroke of genious with the plug-ins prof! I don't know where you got it, but I'd sure like to get my hands on the same (substance) you had before going to bed that night!

And then the problem turns out to be mine anyways! I've fixed it. We're running at peak efficiency now! Yay! Rubric, stick the needle back in!

A couple of notes on Plug-Ins. I'm considering adding IDs to Private Plug-Ins. I saw that some very useful Plug-Ins such as (city) have been claimed privately, and Plug-Ins like that should be public, so I'll probably auto-alter those to be (city45) where 45 is your UserID. Yes, in fact I'll do that right now, and I'll alter all the Responses to fit the new Plug-Ins.

Alright, done it! You wont have to make any adjustments.

Uneditable xnomatch? Are they supposed to be that way or is it a bug with my bot only? All the xnomatch seeks I added appear as a * when I try to edit them. The responses are ok, but there's always an asterisk where there should be a text field containing the word "xnomatch" at the top of the window. Let me know prof...

MrCrab--yeah, I just wanted the bot to parrot back the question. Instead it was doing an i_me_you tanslation and getting it wrong.

My new bot (you know the one Prof) has a large number of xnones, but half the time resorts to memory statements instead. If he only has one memory of a person, he repeats that statement WAY too many times in a single conversation.

I've also noticed a problem recently where a word I have a reply for will derail to a synonym, then recognize I don't have a reply for the synonym and return an xnone.

Eg:
I have replies for Rob and Holiday, but rob switches to steal which I have no reply for and Holiday switches to vacation which has the same problem.

Dammit! I thought I was going to sleep tonight, but just before lying down I came to check my transcripts and just HAD TO try out the math stuff. Great addition! (no pun intended, really)

So here's another minor gripe:
I've invited a lot of people to visit my new bot. The memory is recording guest statements, then returning them to later guests and confusing them. I could work with that, but I can't even edit the memories for "guest" on my bot.

I guess we either need no "guest" memories being recorded, or at least need to be able to edit them.

Considering the judges are going to be logging in as guests, this could hurt us in the challenge.

Good thoughts, rex. I altered the xgossip to slowly occur more often as a Bot gets more memories and more friends. This should prevent your Bot from constantly bringing up your bathroom habits.

Good point about Guest memory. I'll have to inhibit that completely.

I'll look into your Synonym problem and Rahz's xnomatch problem shortly.
