Hello,

Not sure if this is the best place to report a bug and/or issue, but I was told you managed Promptbot on the /r/writingprompts IRC channel and wanted to report saying that the bot has not responded to a single command in the channel for the last five or so days as of this post.

Thanks for looking into it!

Backup + remove list in one command.
Would allow for list fixing while bot is still running.

eg cancel sprint, remove list, backup, etc.
Channel ops and bot op (universal)?
Channel ops may not be opped in channel (e.g., subreddit mods)

Will probably require some research into document retrieval.

eg "100 words max", "5 minutes writing duration"

!challenge = !prompt + !constraint

• Persistent, month-long wordcounts
• In-channel doom clock
• Allow daily announcements

Op-only command?

but do not print unrecognized command message if prefixed with !

Might help with the issue of needing to load from/back up to different files for each list

Doesn't respond because TypeError is raised:

exceptions.TypeError: Must write bytes to a TLS transport, not unicode.

Syntax:
"_character said _adverb as he jumped into his convertible _noun and drove off with his _adjective wife."
repeats:
"Does _character\1 like water? Does _\1 hate water?"
bot fills in, no need for user to retype

Allow for 'load prompts file' in addition to 'load prompt file'. May have to make sure list names to not overlap.

Adding parts of source to prompt text. Only way to get clean prompt text is to add tags and source separately.

Should give time remaining in sprint, if one is currently going, or announce that none is going.

Once topic starts looping, no way to stop it.
