Oh well. When I made most of the functionality of this bot (it was originally a DotA pickup bot) I had looked for something like eggdrop, but I never found it. The bots running pretty well though right now... just a few more things to fix.

This seems to be the script people use with eggdrops (which allow for botnets spanning networks etc).. but kudos on scripting the whole thing yourself.. i certainly wouldn't have had the patience..

I would be willing to idle Qnet (I already do for the beta channel) and manage the pickups there...we could potentially have 2 networks going. The only problem is that we would need server admins willing to give out their server rcon so that it can be managed via HLSW b/c I wouldn't be playing in a EU game.

I know there are active EU players who would be interested and it wouldn't be too hard to have 2 bots running. I can run one like i did when you were gone Squeek as I think I have pretty much figured out your code and we have found *most* of the major bugs that kill the bot.

It's mainly just a matter of getting together and talking and seeing if there really is a good enough player base to get pickups going.

I think it would be worthwhile to have qnet #ff.pickup ready for action when 2.0 launches, even if there is little interest right now. The only problem is that we can't get control of the channel right now, and we can't find the owner.

Also, could you either PM me on here or talk to me on IRC about any bugs with the bot so that I can fix them? I've done some major work on it, and have implemented many new commands, so they might have been fixed in the process.

CLEAN UP NOTE (A.K.A. WHERE'D MY POST GO)

Remember that thing where we don't care if you get banned from a server/IRC channel?

That actually still applies.

I did NOT make a thread, I went to the thread for the place I got banned from. I didn't break any rules and neither did the others that posted after me, thus I think post deletion wasn't necessary.

Circuitous · 04-07-2008, 03:02 AM

Yeah there are two sentences to that rule.

Go on, read it again, you'll see it this time.

You're right, I could have PM'ed Squeek, but posting in the thread was so much better...

Circuitous · 04-07-2008, 04:39 AM

Welp, I feel justified. Carry on, thread.
