Increase chance of ??? sound in brobot noisemaker - UrsulaMejor - 09-12-2016

Looking at the code, the chances of getting a glitched sound appears to be 1/150

Code:
if (newmode && rand(1,150) == 1)

boutput(user, "<span style=\"color:red\">BZZZ SOUND SYNTHESISER ERROR</span>")

boutput(user, "<span style=\"color:blue\">Mode is now: ???</span>")

src.mode = pick("un1","un2","un3")
This used to be reasonable back when you could rapidly switch modes 10 times a second by clicking on yourself, but now that you have to wait for a menu to pop up and navigate said menu it makes it really tedious and we've basically stopped seeing brobots using a glitched synth.

I recommend the chances be raised to 1/50

This change would be cool and good.

Can't you just queue up a bunch of menus and do it that way?
