The house player

View as Markdown

The house player is a pretend player that answers when fewer than three people are playing, so a small stream always has someone to beat. It stops as soon as enough real people join. You tell it the right answer and some wrong ones, and it decides when to speak.

house.answer(item.answer, { wrong: ['cake', 'flower', 'a planet'], accuracy: 0.5 })

accuracy is how often it is right, 0.5 by default. The wrong answers are what it says the rest of the time, so make them funny.

house.vote(item.answer, { accuracy: 0.6 })

For votes, accuracy defaults to 0.6.

House answers show with a House badge and score like anyone else's, which is why it can win a round. Players see its terrible guesses in the feed, and that is half the fun.
