Notice the rooms of message's source and where the command was run (and answered).

known issue.

I was positive this had been reported before. The bot relies on the DOM messages for the replacement. This could be possible if she reached into the transcript for the room. I'll look into it this afternoon.

I think the main problem here is that it gets it from a different room, not
that it doesn't work in other rooms. In other rooms, it should probably
just say, "Sorry, that only works in the JavaScript room because...."

@AmaanC I'm pretty sure it is possible. I just need to /get on the transcript and search that.

Yeah, I'm sure it's possible too. Just more work! We're a lazy bunch of
contributors

Once they (as in, Intel) makes node-webkit headless, we can trivially port my so-chatbot-driver to node-webkit and call it a day. No need to port the guts of the bot to node; we can continue running it in a webkit context, just headless and driven by node itself.

It's coming. :)
