Unfortunately this probability always exists... that's one reason I was thinking about a simple (and maybe not-so-serious) monthly poll instead of a big contest. It wouldn't consume much time or energy to host it, the PF botmasters could vote for each others bots and I think it could be easily secured that nobody votes for his/her own bot (or voting more than once, etc.). I just thought it could be entertaining. Maybe I'm wrong. ^^

Jeez, this forum has turned into some city planning comittee meeting. This isn't anything complicated. If you really want a bot competition, create one yourself and run it however you feel like doing it.
Other than that, there's no point in wanking about format, judging, who is involved, etc. if you're not doing any of the work. All you need to do is not participate if you don't like it.

since i'm really bored i created a poll as a prize-less contest
send an email to theseer@gmail.com with ur bots name and which catergory (smartest, overall...) it wants to be entered in. note that its a poll, not a judging contest.

I got a gmail invite and signed up. It looks pretty much identical to Yahoo mail except they try to keep you from deleting anything (perhaps it's designed for people who don't like to delete anything?). I don't really care for it.
ANYWAY.....today is the day of the Loebner contest. Naturally, I am curious. Has anyone been able to locate the bot made by Steven Watkins? (I think that's the name. I never heard of him before.)
