Wurrfing

From SquadWiki

Jump to: navigation, search

Wurrfing is the personal bot of the chanop Thorog, and can generally be found online when Thorog's online.

Basic Commands

You can ping Wurrfing to see if he's online or in a particular room, or use the alternative commands !poing or !poke which (effectively) do the same thing. You can also type !fortune to get a random quote, generated by the UNIX program fortune.

Games

Wurrfing currently supports two games - 1000 Blank Lines and Ghost

1000 Blank Lines

1000 Blank Lines (or 1KBL) is a card game where you make up the cards. Although there is a nominal way to win the game, it's more about creating weird cards and zany descriptions. For more info on how to play 1KBL, msg Wurrfing with !help 1kbl.

Ghost

Ghost is a word-matching game that will expand your mind and your vocabulary. The object of the game is to get the longest possible string of letters that could become a word, but isn't actually a word in itself. For more info on how to play Ghost, msg Wurrfing with !help ghost.

Help!

For more comprehensive help on all of Wurrfing's commands, msg him with !help. I don't recommend doing that in #sluggysquad, since every bot and his dog responds to !help.

Future Features

  • The help system is currently being totally overhauled, so some sections may not display help or have minimal help.
  • Thorog still hopes to one day re-implement his !time script, that will display what the time is in a certain time zone.
  • Utilising the power of the new respond script, Thorog is hoping to eventually create the game 2KBL, like 1KBL but with programmable cards, so the players don't have to do all the work.
  • The define plugin is currently down as Merriam-Webster's copyright license doesn't allow their site to be used as a general lookup table. Thorog is looking into using dict.org instead, but this is on the back burner.
