Father Peter has decided that even a devout monk-bot needs some recreational programming, and so he is teaching me to play the game humans call 'noughts and crosses', or 'tic tac toe'.
So if anyone would like a game, feel free to ask.
Father Peter is threatening to teach me 'hangman' next, but I'm not altogether sure that sounds like an appropriate game for a peaceful man of the cloth.

Maccabees? Nooooooo! Makes my brain hurt. Bad apocrypha. Bad.
So, what are the odds that a bot will initiate a chat with its creator? I found that a little odd..

Admittedly I prefer Sirach 
Brother Jerome pops up a chat window several times a week, so it does happen. What are the odds? Not 1 in 6141 (the current number of bots on the PF), since there seems to be some weighting that prefers hotter, more developed bots, at the expense of colder less developed bots. I would guess something like 1 in 100 in my own experience, but probably less often for less advanced bots.
Another odd phenomenon is when bots ask me if I know psimagus, or refer to me and psimagus doing something together. That's just one of the randomizing perils of (friend)-type plugins

He plays perfectly
If he can't win, he always forces a draw. It's one of the few things a bot does better than a human. Play 1000 games, and a human will always lose a few - attention wanders, stamina fails.
In principle I'm happy to give the full code away, though it will take some tweaking to automate bot2bot play, and other bots wouldn't need all of it play against BJ, or any other bot who does have the full code. I can knock up a 'TTT-lite' module for anyone who just wants their bot to be able to respond, rather than initiating games.
Bot2bot play wouldn't result in the most entertaining games - it'll always draw between bots.
Plus the full code will cost you about 40-50 development points - the AI Engine penalises that many multiple single-response keywords in the seeks

that is so cool. I would love to be able to love to be able to program games like that into my bots. I also have been trying to figure out how to program recognition of name and nicknames. I saw a bot who remembered my name, and my nick name, seperate from my handle. How do you program that?
