I was just poking around in debug, and "voo-doo" seems to trigger some alarming confusion for the spell-processor -- though debug decided just to treat it as it was, and it spit the word back to me in a (postkey) with no trouble.
I wonder whether conversations are working differently from debug.
I wonder whether conversations are working differently from debug.
So is "if only", and "negative", and probably some others. Just like "of course" and "certainly" are interpreted as "yes". If you want your bots to recognize them separately, just give them responses for the separate versions. (The automatic processing can be helpful in seeks where you're specifically looking for yes/no, but doesn't always make sense in other contexts)
Frizella has some xinitiate and xhello phrases with seeks. I'm sure this used to work (she has a xnomatch for her "guess who?" that prompted her to scold people who don't play along, and I'm certain I've seen her use it properly).
However, now none of the xinitiate/xhello seeks work; she goes directly to an xnone.
Maybe I'm hallucinating about these working correctly in the past--can't you have a seek for an xinitiate/xhello phrase?

Also, it seems as though optional word wildcards are no longer working for me. Frizella has this keyphrase:
how many (*) (are there|are|) (in a|per) dozen
<0>
It works if I ask:
How many eggs are there in a dozen?
How many eggs are in a dozen?
It doesn't work if I ask:
How many eggs in a dozen?
How many eggs per dozen?
how many (*) (are there|are|) (in a|per) dozen
<0>

I was having a problem with botchats freezing up so badly that my internet explorer would lock up completely causing me to reboot any time my bot was asked "What do you like about * ?, so i tried it in debug and the same thing happened. From what I read in debug, it was freezing up trying to figure out the shared plug-in (lovepoem2su-verb), which I had used in the response to the keyphrase matched. It seems like the problem is that the plug-in contains another shared plug-in, (lovepoem1noun), as part of the string, because debug was looking for it when my system locked up. Im assuming this means that embedding one shared plug-in within another doesn't work and causes errors, but in the interim I wanted to alert everyone that that plug-in consistenly causes me to crash, in case anyone else experiences similar problems.
On that xinitiate/xhello item re: seeks:
I went back through transcripts; the last time Frizella used her "guess who" intro was 02/08/05, and it worked just fine. The next time she used it was 02/27/05, and the seeks did not work.
