Ever wanted to invite a famous person (rockstar, football player, your mom)
to your channel so that everybody could ask him/her a question, but didn't
know how to manage the channel? Or maybe you did, but the management costs
too much time and work and is very complicated? 

Now here's your answer. Simply download this script, configure it and an
easy chat session is all there's left. Users register with just one
command, which adds their nick+uhost to a file. When you're ready to
have people ask the celebrity a question you moderate the chan (+m)
and type /msg botname dovoice. It will give voice (+v) to the first 2
persons in the list, who can then ask their question. When they're done
(or when you think it's enough :P) you do the 'dovoice' command again and
the next 2 persons will be given +v (the first 2 will be devoiced first,
don't worry). How can it be easier than that? 

Extra features include:
- no double registration (script checks nick and uhost)
- people can see when it's their turn
    (list of nicknames can be made public)
- timed 'onjoin' notice, to give instructions about the
    registration progress
- timed registration - you set the time when people should
    be able to register
- no stress anymore! :) (uh, who is next to be voiced? he/she
    already had a turn?)
- easy commands - even people who've never been on irc know
    how to use this :)


Well, that's about it. Don't be frightened by the many options.
Most of them are self-explanatory. If you have any questions or comments
(you used my script and need to shed some tears of gratitude :P)
feel free to contact me at l.keijser@chello.nl

Have fun!
