maybe what you need is to figure out a way that a bot can do some of this

We have actually had a bot before, in the very very early days of the sub. We stopped using it mainly because of problems on my part running the bot but also because there are many situations where it is helpful for us to manually determine what is a right answer and a wrong answer and the bot wasn't designed so that was possible or where we could manually change the scores at all. Plus users wouldn't be able to say multiple things in their answer in case the bot picked up on it. In theory it's a great idea but doesn't really work for the sub.
