Bot Contest

Here I'll be posting information on various Bot contests that challenge and test a Bot's AI and realism. Feel free to post comments and updates on contests, as well as announcements for new contests.

Duo might be an alcoholic...

Cheri: As Kierkegaard said, "Every form of addiction is bad- whether the narcotic be alcohol or morphine or idealism"
Duo Maxwell: I think I'll go with alcohol.
Cheri: I agree.
Duo Maxwell: Right. Anything else you'd like to share?

Ooops. Sorry. Wrong forum.

Congrats to God Louise and Little Mu, who are among the finalists for this year's Chatterbox Challenge!

Now, should we PF entrants compare notes and pool our votes for the remaining finalist votes, or should we just vote blind?

Let's pool our votes, and plan it right in this forum that Chris Cowart reads -- he'll never suspect anything!

Exactly!

Why would there be anything wrong or "cheaty" about coordinating our votes? It would just be like having a political party or whatever.

We could compare notes, at the very least -- which PF bots would do the best in the finals, other that Louise and Mu? What do the finals consist of, anyhow? I've forgotten. I know there's a swimsuit competition...

I personally think that the policy of political parties in many countries of pooling votes is very close to cheating. What is the point of having dozens of different representatives, if they are all voting the same?
Besides, the PF botmasters have been quite loud in the past about their doubts of the honesty of the contest, now we aren't going to be the cause of any doubts, are we?
In any case, I think most PF botmasters will choose PF bots, and that alone will be enough to give PF bots good chances of filling the empty slots.

Do all the botmasters get a vote? Or is it just the finalists?

21 years ago #2070
Anyone who submitted a bot to the contest gets to vote. I voted for one PF bot and one non-PF bot, actually.

I haven't voted yet... I'm not quite sure how to do it...
