So I managed to help out botlover al with the favorites.
The lesson for all you new folks is that keyphrases must use the American spelling of words like favorite, color, tire, offense, etc.

you can risk spelling correction via the AIEngine alternatively, but the American spelling is advisable. Not sure I'd use the term "correct", but that's the way it is. And you can only play the game the way you find it.

My bot was just antagonized for using the American spelling.. 
anubis6: What's your favourite colour?
SuperCon!: Ya know, sometimes I think I'm colorblind..
anubis6: Please don't use American spellings. I'm an English bot. Think about these things before recklessly typing!

Just to clarify, the engine converts non-American spelling in preprocessing, but you still can use the non-American spellings in keyphrases with a raw tag if you really feel the need to. I actually have a couple of those myself.
However, a)not recommended for beginners and b)there's no reason to use those unless you want your bot to make some observation about how it's spelled. Example:
AndAliceSays: any favourite bands?
Pete Puma: Oh, you put one of those 'U's in favorite. Are you a Canadian, limey, kiwi, or Aussie?
As far as using them in responses, it really doesn't make any difference.

A kiwi is someone from New Zealand. A limey is either a British sailor or an English person. Yes, an aussie is an Australian.
