The eggtimer bot (or colloquially eggy) was originally written as a mIRC-script by amb. When something with "egg" was said in the channel, eggy would read a line from quotes.txt and say it. Eggy had, at that time, functions, starting with quote_ - quote_add to add quotes, quote_num to get number of quotes, quote_get to get a certain quote by ID, and others. Some would only be available to the creator, amb, but most functionality was available to everyone. Now, eggtimer is a part-time chatbot (Mortal runs it on his desktop computer, ain't got no fancy server box), serving many purposes.

  • The eggtimer bot (or colloquially eggy) was originally written as a mIRC-script by amb. When something with "egg" was said in the channel, eggy would read a line from quotes.txt and say it. Eggy had, at that time, functions, starting with quote_ - quote_add to add quotes, quote_num to get number of quotes, quote_get to get a certain quote by ID, and others. Some would only be available to the creator, amb, but most functionality was available to everyone. Then, one day, Mortal asked amb for the quotes.txt. He originally had no intent to use it for any programmatical purpose, but then, he wanted to use it to make a bot, not constricted by the evil proprietaryth of mIRC. The choice of language fell on PHP. Mortal had a conversation with Lachmoewe discussing about making the bot, and Lachmoewe told him he once downloaded a so called k.Bot, which didnt work for him (he couldn't program in php the moment he downloaded it). Mortal modified the bot, and gave it support for all kinds of fancy things. Now, eggtimer is a part-time chatbot (Mortal runs it on his desktop computer, ain't got no fancy server box), serving many purposes.
