Bingo Bot (Bots)
Bingo Bot // BotsyanstFeb 24, 2003, 6:59pm
Apologies that this is late.
A couple of people are looking for a Bingo Bot. If anyone knows where one can be obtained, please post it to the group. Also, regarding the bingo bots that were in use (and may still be in use) in bingo worlds, it has been said that these are not truly calling random numbers. Now, I'm not real savvy on programming, am just passing along this information. (I did pass along this information in an email to Activeworlds a few months ago; however, don't know if anything has been done to correct the problem.) Perhaps someone can get with a programmer to make a Bingo Bot that is available to not only bingo worlds, but also the kids or whoever else would like to use one. kahFeb 24, 2003, 9:55pm

You won't get more bots by posting more posts :-)) What you were told is probably someone being a bit silly, as numbers generated by computers can never be totally random, it's all based on maths, but it does try to the extent it's to generate random numbers. I wouldn't worry about it. Go nag the AWI about making their bot free or something instead of nagging us. KAH |
