ANNOUNCEMENTS
EVENTS_COMMAND
ADMINS

In the spirit of youtube's 301 views... We show at most 11 events

Instead of:

Received from 369748300607389698: foo bar

Show something like:

{SERVERID} "Server" #CHANNELID #Channel @POSTERID @Poster: foo bar

So that we don't warn if we rapidire shutdown/start up bot
Just store "upcoming events" as current_events for the lp_poller.

Probably wants a Poller class(?)

I fixed the API to emit IDs (again)

use those

we need to return a list and apply range then

otherwise if event *1 is GSL and event *11 is GSL, we won't see "in 2 hours then 1d 2h", because the *11 will have been split off already.

related to #4

So you can have channel X > alerts / !events for SC2 and BW.

if real fancy, should:

• first exact match
• then try "starts with"
• then try contains

Should post about the 2 next events top.

Examples:

Bad: (shouln't include name to prevent injections/whatever)

user> !next BAD
bot> No upcoming event.

Exact match, one result:

user> !next Blizzcon: Qualifiers First Round
bot> Next Blizzcon: Qualifiers First Round in 1d 5h.

Exact match, two results:

user> !next GSL Code S
bot> Next GSL Code S in 1d 5, then 3d.

Inexact match, twice same:

user> !next GSL
bot> Next GSL Code S in 1d 5, then 3d.

Inexact match, different:

user> !next BTSL
bot> Next BSL: Europe in 1d 5, then BTSL: Asia in 1d 12h.

Store errors in some log.

when an event goes live, the event should be able to ping a role(probably), predefined, per-server.
people should be able to subscribe to that role.

related to #5

fooken legacy code

Example:

> !events
UPCOMING
 * WCS Regional Challengers - 32m, then 9h 32m, then 20h 2m
> !events all
UPCOMING
 * WCS Regional Challengers - 29m, then 9h 29m, then 19h 59m, then 1d, then 1d 9h, then 2 days

Should give the same results

I suppose the folded event's "date" can be the date of the first one.

like we do for feature LP

Add a command like !info which shows which servers the bot is on, as well as which features are enabled on which channels.

This should also help cleanup the config with servers that don't exist anymore (or where the bot was kicked from) and channels that were deleted/that the bot doesn't have access to anymore.

first only templates for like "SOON", "LIVE" and "UPCOMING".

need to decide how to do when there are multiple lines

(somewhat) depends on #22

maybe also lost new/lost servers
and maybe when someone does something (add a channel etc)?

• Rename banlist to ignorelist
• Add !ignore +/-/etc
• Add a (admin-only) listing (!ignore by itself?) that "ping" so admin can see who they are

should be able to use !feature within a server

also !stream probably.

no one cares

.split is bad mkay
