EventBot

Sign-up posts for events, solo or in teams, with deadlines, questions, and random picks.

LiveDiscord

Post an event, let people sign up with a button, and close sign-ups automatically at the deadline. Events can take individuals or whole teams, with a minimum and maximum team size, a yes-or-no question, and a free-text question for each sign-up. When it’s time, pick the participants yourself or let the bot draw them at random.

Setup

Invite the bot. It only needs to send messages and read its own posts.
Optionally, with Manage Server, give a role event-admin rights with /eventbot addadmin. The server owner and administrators already have them.
Set your timezone once with /eventbot timezone, then run /event create and type times like 2026-10-12 19:00 or 10/12/2026 7:00pm. Discord timestamp codes such as <t:1700000000:F> work too.

Good to know

Sign-ups close on their own at the deadline, checked every 30 seconds. Members never need a command; the Sign Up and Un-sign buttons are the whole interface for them. No privileged intents are needed.

Commands

Anyone can use the first group. The second is for the people who run the server.

For everyone

List every command.
e.g./eventbot help
