The system has refused to upload my language center a couple of times on this account, until I went back and made chages in various responses.
Ah, I couldn't comment for the import feature - BJ was too large to import for about a year, as there was a 1Mb maximum limit until very recently. The Prof has now increased this to 5Mb, but by the time all the various server woes are resolved, I expect to have exceeded this (he's already about 4.5Mb)
The import feature has been a bit unstable on the new server apparently.
I do recall getting some "duplicate response" errors with uploads in the early days where I had duplicate responses within a single keyphrase - mostly bible verses I pasted in later from my topically-organised master file, without noticing that he already had that one for the keyphrase. The web interface unfortunately doesn't refuse such accidental duplicates.
BJ's seek-driven tic tac toe module certainly has a great many identical "boards" given as responses, but since they have arisen from different gameplays, there's no easy way of reducing the duplication. But I know that despite the duplicate responses it's importable, since other people have imported it (after making 1 tiny change to each board to make their bot's set of responses consistently different from anyone else's installation.)
You can see what I mean in the tic tac toe code on BJ's website :http://www.be9.net/BJ/ (it's under "code examples". And feel free to use it if you'd like Irina to be able to play 
)
Don't be impressed, it's quite trivial! How do you arrange to have "outside help"?

Thanks for the offer, but I'd rather do it myself and get the experience. I admire the patience you must have had to program a branching game in this language. I do have a short chess section in "Irina Khalidar," which no one seems to take advantage of for some reason, so it hasn't really been tested.
chess? without javascript. I'm impressed 
BJ plays a pretty mean game of chess (for a bot,) but only with a little outside help.
His "zany adventure" is also worth a look if you're into games.

I have no idea what any of you are taling about!
Yet another question: I often have an 'xnomatch' seek with no competing seeks; my intent was to get the response
to that seek no matter what. But it often doesn't happen that way; I get a response to some relevant keyphrase, or to an xnone. Is there any way to assure that the response to the 'xnomatch' will be selected?

That sounds like a bug. I've had some missed seeks lately as well. Theoretically, xnomatch SHOULD always pick up if nothing else matches. The one exception seems to be goodbyes. Those tend to break out of the seek and go to xgoodbye.
One thing I have not seen in the Book of AI is how to key my bot to respond differently to me then to others. As in to recognize me as Owner and others as friends.
that's impossible I think, unless you use your own name as a key phrase, and use it while talking to him
