Ask 8 Ball v1.3

If you have ever used StealthBot on old battle.net, you know about the Ask8Ball plugin/script.
This is basically it, but it has variables too, just like on battle.net.
It's messages are configurable and you can have up to (2^31)-1 messages if you want.

You can use the command, or access the 8ball publicly like this:
ask8ball Will I ever get married?
Maybe someday.

In version 1.3:

There are five languages:
http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/ask8ball/pages/static-messages/languages/
Please correct my translations!

There are two configuration values:

messages: - A list of the possible messages. Can include variables.
key: - The key, by default ask8ball.

There is one command available for use:

/ask8ball (question)

Instead of publicly broadcasting your answer, it whispers it to you.
Supports functions and all static messages.

! This command doesn't change based on the key value in the config !

There is one function available for use:

ask8ball can you please reload?
Yeah fine. Reloading.
(This just reloads the messages in config.yml)

There are four static messages:

ask8ball am i gay?
Yes, but thats OK.

ask8ball does it blend?
I don't know, ask Tom Dickson.

ask8ball ?

    Please make sure this is 1.1 R6 compatible. Also, please release the source. This is almost exactly what I'm looking for, but for another purpose. I would love to recode it a bit for my own use(would not release to public)

    Can we add static messages ourselves?

    Needs permissions. You can double spam a server with it.
