Countdown on Discord

A single message, edited every day until the raids open, and /readiness so everyone can see where they stand.

What it does: In the feed channel, a single message says how many days are left, which raids open, how many are at 60, what can be formed and, for each core, what is missing, in roles and numbers. /readiness answers only to you: your level, your forecast, the enchants you lack, your core, the guild and the days.
Who sees it: The message, whoever reads the channel. /readiness, anyone on the server. It belongs to the WoW: Forever guild.
Where to find it: In the feed channel, which is picked in the guild's settings on the site. With no channel, the message does not go out, and /readiness works the same, typed in any channel.

How it should behave

The message starts at a milestone: 28, 21, 14, 7, 3, 1 or 0 days before the opening. After that it is only edited, until the raids open.
It is written once a day, from the digest's hour, on the server's clock.
Whoever picks the channel after a milestone's hour waits for the next. Nobody gets a late milestone.
Deleted by hand, another goes out at the next milestone. Changing channels starts over.
The days are the same everywhere: whole days to the opening. With less than a day, everything says under a day.
When a core's titulars at 60 reach its size, a highlight goes out in the feed, once per core and raid: falling and coming back does not generate another.
On a day someone reached 60, the daily digest brings a line with how many did and how many days are left.
/readiness speaks only of whoever asked: the answer is seen only by you, and another person's forecast never shows.
On a server with guilds of more than one game, /readiness answers for the Forever guild.
With no confirmed character, the answer leads to registration, like /profile's.

The message never says who is behind: only roles and numbers. Nobody is singled out.
The message lists up to 8 cores. The others are on the countdown page.
/readiness says the countdown isn't on in this server: there is no WoW: Forever guild in it.
The game still says the raids opened for a week after the opening, and the site has already stopped counting.
