New plugin: EventHerald

[butterscotchstallion]

This plugin assists groups of people on irc watching a film or television.

• Add events and announce them periodically
• Users may add themselves as a "ticket holder" for an event
• Countdown

Adding an event

<user> !addevent 4/22/2015 22:00 Harry Potter

<bot> Event #1 added

Adding a viewer

Viewers can only add themselves to events.

<SomeNick> !ticket 1 (or last added event added if no event id specified)

<bot> SomeNick has been added to event #1 - Harry Potter at 4/22/2015 22:00

Countdown

In situations where a synchronized viewing is not possible, the bot can count down from a specified number (3 by default)

<user> !countdown
<bot> 3
<bot> 2
<bot> 1
<bot> play!
