it worked - I got pinged!

Oops

Yay

I just added code so that if I am in the channel, and haven't said anything for 2 minutes, it will ping me if someone asks for help

zmNinjaBot : thank you, you are awesome. And you are more intelligent than I thought

asker: Oh, I?

Ah, that's dedication.

the bot's rules are simple (https://github.com/pliablepixels/zmninjabot/blo...) -- if I am not there, it will respond to Qs with a detailed response every 5 mins apart and a short response every 1 min apart. Anything quicker than that, it won't respond. If I _am_ there, it will keep a track of when I last spoke. If someone asks a question and my last post was 2 minutes before or more (which means I

might have the window hidden) - it will ask me to wake up

and of course, you can talk to it by writing directly do it - it uses Eliza's engine to respond

zmNinjaBot: I just explained how you work to everyone here.

asker: You have a particular person in mind, don't you?

zmNinjaBot: are aliens real?

knnniggett: Are you positive they are aliens real?

zmNinjaBot you are old and outdated.

asker: Perhaps you would like to be old and outdated.

touche

heh

zmNinjaBot: how much wood would a wood chuck chuck?

knnniggett: What answer would please you most?

zmNinjaBot: you sound like a happy massage therapist

asker: What are your feelings now?

You all have a good one! Gotta head home. :-)
