## MadLibBot

## Usage
|

The madlibbot resides in the "#madlibs" channel on the tilde.town server.
|

Saying "madlibbot: startgame" will start a new game of madlibs
|
||||
When asked for a word, reply with "madlibbot: WORD". This is so multiple

players may banter in a channel without accidentally answering the bot.

Use the command "madlibbot: !quit" to end a game prematurely.

If you would like to make your own stories discoverable by madlibbot, create a

MadLib files are plain text and use double mustaches to denote words that will

# Future Plans
|
||||
* Allow users to specify the full path to a madlib file.
|
||||
** Make sure you filter only "\*.madlib" files so you don't accidentally grant
|
||||
elevated read permissions!
|
||||
* Allow story writers the ability to specify that a single answer should be
|
||||
used multiple times in a story
|
||||
** Maybe specified like {{#a noun#}} or {{#a noun#4}}
|
||||
* Create word-munging options that can be specified for a word to modify given
|
||||
user input
|
||||
** Capital - convert "foo" to "Foo"
|
||||
** AllCaps - convert "bar" to "BAR"
|

** Numeric - convert "3" to "three"
