Countdown

You can tell Ferguson your upcoming events and ask him to count the remaining days.

  • Add a new event: Hey @Ferguson, add a new event Urlaub on DD-MM-YYYY please! or anything similar (Botkit listens to specific keywoards, not the 100% right sequence)
  • Ask for the remaining time: @Ferguson, how long is it til the event Urlaub?

Voting

With the command Let's go! you can tell Ferguson to start a new election inside the current channel. Your team members can then vote for one winner.

Games

Ferguson can start an interactive game which you can play with your real life friends. It is based upon the playoff system. You play little minigames like "Who can drink the most shots in a minute?" against one other person and the winner is reaching the next round. The one who wins the final game can call oneself an Amazing Human Slash Genius.

Jake Peralta is an amazing detective-slash-genius
