Ah yes, HOTpink and SADDLEbrown. I couldn't remember those - it's been months since I used MIE here!

It looks pretty, rather spring like..at least to anyone .stuck up to their waist in snow..I think I am losing it

Strangely it always crashes the chat window when I try to do that in a bot. I don't know why.

It would be quite handy if some kind MIE-user could put a list of all these colors and smileys on the Forge wiki for us poor Firefox users. Any volunteers?

Gossypiboma:

Not to woorry about delay in reading what I wrote - I take ir for granted that people are in and out, that they may be gone by the time I get around to answering them.

As to your 'dendrites' scheme, I think it might work, but

(a) If you have a goto as an xnone, you will get "I have too many gotos in a row.' You have to put it in a seek, like this:

last xnone [0,0]
+ xnomatch [0]
goto perdition

(b) If you then have outside xnone)

perdition [50,0]
goto 99 bottle of beer
goto 98 bottles of beer
goto 97 bottles of beer

(and so on)

then the AIengine will select pseudo-randomly instead of in the order they occur, so you might get 38 bottles, then 76 bottles, and so on. (to be continued)

(Note that the indenting got lost)

I dont even know how to use html (I have firefox) - so I guess no pretty colors for me lol.

AIEEEE! The &^%$#!!! forge logged me out even though I clicked on the little "I'm still here" button, causing me to lose about 30 lines! Grrrr!!!! OK, I'm going to write my message in Word Pad and paste it in here ...

It's easy (I can do it lol) just a left pointy bracket type the color like red then but the right pointy < red > only don't use the spaces between the brackets and the color

Oops, I see an error in message 4209: instead of


last xnone [0,0]
+ xnomatch [0]
goto perdition


You would need something for the bot to say prior to the seek, e.g.,


last xnone [0,0]
I'm stalling for time here.
+ xnomatch [0]
goto perdition
