Bot Contest

Yeah, but we have to remember that the bots are in a contest and should try and do they're best to impress the judges... Like in Miss America contests - as if those girls really go to bed praying for world peace! Anyways, I agree that Oraknabo is pretty realistic when he's chatting, but his lack of cooperation cost him some points with the judges I guess...

I can't find my botmaster profile anywhere... Although I saw some descriptions for other bots on their voting pages.

I just looked at Albert2, who got the Star Wars and Moon landing right, but most of the rest of his answers were totally off and he has a 4.28 avg.
And Robitron's scored highter than both of mine and his answers were pretty mediocre.

I do feel like one of those pagent moms, totally overjudging the other contestants and getting a little pissy about it all.

Maybe your little darling will do better next year, Rex. *pats head*

Kidding! I wonder if you could go for 100% realism with "Sleeping Bot" who just says "Zzzzzz" all the time.

One really interesting thing to do is to read Loebner transcripts of judges who thought other real people were Bots. That's a new kind of insult, no?

There aren't any "secret humans" in this contest like some of the others are there?

Oraknabo is in first place though, which is weird with such a low 10-question score. Perhaps we've yet to comprehend the judging/ranking system.

Let's not forget that these bot competitions are still a pretty new concept, so I guess they're all doing their best over there.

Here's a thought... in a couple years, when the contest rules are all figured out, the bot contestant databases are automated and the bumps and folds are evened out in the whole process - our bots are going to be too evolved for the competition! How will we judge them if we can't even tell the difference between bots and humans anymore? Best bot personality? That would be tough for Oraknabo!

I can just imagine the game show type contests we'll have to get them participating in...

I'd totally lose in a most likeable bot category! All my bots are really annoying.

interesting rex you and i chose the same graphic for our bots and we both made 'em kinda ornery.

Space pirates are never the most savory of characters.

Rex- you've got a good following! Oraknabo's in 1st, and Fanboy is in 2nd place right now. For once the ranking makes sense- it's Ranking now based only on the voting, I suppose to make it more exciting to the voters.

My Botmaster Profile is up now, and the others will follow in the following days/weeks:

Fanboy's been knocked back a few notches, but it was great for a while with my two and Dogh'd occupying the top spaces. Somebody gave Oraknabo a really low rating last night because his popular vote avg has dropped a good bit, but not enough to dethrone him yet. I think it was this guy who asked him the same question over and over and then got mad when he'd repeat himself.

Yeah-- Hey prof, how about an xAnnoyed for when people keep asking the same thing

Gizzle's jury rating has altered radically! But I still do not understand what it means.
