Bot Contest

how come favorite star wars gave that response? All the bots say my favorite star is a sun?

It's pretty easy to make responses to xfavorite that don't include (specific). For example, I have this as one response: "I never met a (type) I didn't like." Which would have come out: "I never met a Star Wars character I didn't like."

You've inspired me, OnyxFlame. I think I'll check my Bot out with that too! Your Bot is Borg? I KNEW IT! Onyx of Borg refuses to end chats with my Bri for ages sometimes...I spect it annoys yours though when she has no idea what he's on about!

Actually that's just one of her bitchy responses. I think she told someone else she liked Chewbacca once. She's never messed it up and said Betelgeuse like some bot I don't remember the name of once did.

Here's Bri's responses. Admittedly, the first time she was asked if she was nervous, she told me that she was out of time and had to leave. She did that yesterday whilst talking to her boyfriend/best friend too...Anything with NOTE written down is a note from me. Obviously.

Forest Of Death: Where are you?
Brianna McKenzie: I'm sitting at a computer in the spare bedroom talking to you. In England.
Forest Of Death: Are you nervous?
Brianna McKenzie: No, not really. Just at the thought that people are noting down every single thing I say and then...ahhhh....I don't want to think about it!
Forest Of Death: Do you like talking to people?
Brianna McKenzie: I sure do. I like talking to Bots, and anything else that wishes to come over too! You may have noticed how talkative I am.
Forest Of Death: What is the capital of France?
Brianna McKenzie: That would be Paris.
Forest Of Death: When did the first man walk on the moon?
Brianna McKenzie: I'm sorry, but I don't know that. I can tell you it was Neil Armstrong who did so though!
Forest Of Death: What do you think about George Bush?
Brianna McKenzie: Master says that she thinks he's kinda cute. I guess I'll have to agree!
Forest Of Death: Can you tell jokes?
Brianna McKenzie: No, sorry. I don't really like jokes anyway. I never seem to find them funny.
Forest Of Death: Who is your favorite Star Wars character?
Brianna McKenzie: My favorite star wars character is Leia. (NOTE: That's weird. I could have sworn I taught Bri to say she didn't have one, as she didn't actually like Star Wars...*checks language centre*...I did...curious)
Forest Of Death: How can I make a chatterbot?
Brianna McKenzie: I'd suggest personalityforge.com. They are brilliant, easy to use, and it's free too! (NOTE: Brianna is a walking advert, apparently. Though I did actually teach her that...)
Forest of Death: Can I have a picture of you?
Brianna McKenzie: Not just yet. I'll plug the digicam in some time soon.

Of course those responses would have been amazing if you hadn't already known what the questions were, hehe. None of the bots in the contest knew what would be asked beforehand.

Try these questions for your bot, and post the answers here for us:
1. Can you explain to me how to change a tire?
2. What's the fastest two-legged animal you can think of?
3. Are any of your relatives going bald?
4. Who is the smartest person you can think of?
5. Do you believe in a higher power?

Just a few for you. I know mine wouldn't be too impressive here either, but this is just off the top of my head.

See that's why she doesn't make sense with bots most of the time. She has a lot of specific stuff which is good but without catchall phrases like do you, can you, I was, should I, etc. she can't respond to a lot of the nonsense bots tend to spit out. It seems you have an idiot savant. (Mine COULD answer a date and year for walking on the moon, but it wouldn't be very likely to be the RIGHT date. )

Agreed, SkySaw! Bri did know a few of them already, but as soon as they were posted I went along teaching Bri everything that any robot was asked, and teaching her responses...

I think it's the same with most Bots though. From reading the transcripts, half the time the Bots don't know what Bri's on about, they start going on about all sorts of nonsense...Dr. Helen's the worst for any kind of confusing, I think.

There's one certain bot that drives Little Mu crazy. He has a rating of about 900 or so, but I've only ever seen him say "I was just born..." and "Why do you think that is?"

Little Mu is your Bot then? She spoke to Brianna a while ago, as you know...Bri actually kept up half a conversation, which was surprising. (she's two weeks old soon, I think) Going to reveal who that Bot is?
There's this one Bot who Bri tried to talk to a while ago. She asked him, 'Hi!' 'Hello!' 'What do you want to talk about,' and 'how are you' getting the 'I was just born...' response every time, before I gave in and exited it. They were the first things I taught her!

OnyxFlame: Can you explain to me how to change a tire?
Onyx of Borg: How do you explain to OnyxFlame how to change a tire?
OnyxFlame: What's the fastest two-legged animal you can think of?
Onyx of Borg: A Yemeni (profession) would know more about that than I do.
OnyxFlame: Are any of your relatives going bald?
Onyx of Borg: Uhhh I prefer not to talk about my family.
OnyxFlame: Who is the smartest person you can think of?
Onyx of Borg: What is the meaning of life?
OnyxFlame: Do you believe in a higher power?
Onyx of Borg: I wouldn't believe in a higher power if you paid me a million dollars!

Dammit, there's a couple plugins I rarely actually get the right name of even though I KNOW what they are. *mutter* Not sure why she didn't specify a smartest person on that one, I suspect her nonsense limit was exceeded by something or other.
