Polls & Events
Just tell Tootsies what you want. She’ll set up a real Discord poll or put something on the server calendar — in plain English, no slash commands required.
Polls — how it works
native discord polls, sourced and posted for you
Ask for a poll and Tootsies creates a real native Discord poll — the kind with the built-in vote counts and progress bars. She can even look up the options if you ask her to (“use the Casa Amor cast,” “use tonight’s nominees”). She also checks for existing polls across the server first, so she won’t post a duplicate.
Events — putting things on the calendar
plain english → discord scheduled event
Say “schedule a watch party Friday 8pm” and she creates a Discord scheduled event. She reads your time in ET — the server’s local time — so “8pm” lands at 8pm ET, not midnight UTC. She fills in sensible defaults (“location: TBD”, one hour long) and you can give her as much or as little detail as you like.
Who can do what
a quick permission map
Most things are open to everyone. A handful of actions — the ones that change or end something — are mod-only. And Tootsies needs one Discord permission to create events at all.
anyone can ask Tootsies to…
- make a poll
- read back a poll’s results
- list polls across the server
- view upcoming events
mods only
- end or edit a poll
- create an event
- edit or cancel an event
- start an event early
Events also require Tootsies to have the Manage Events permission in the server — she’ll tell you clearly if that’s missing.
One gotcha with polls
discord polls are immutable once live
Discord doesn’t let anyone edit a live poll — not even the bot that made it. So if you ask Tootsies to change one, she’ll close the old poll and post a fresh copy with your edits baked in. Votes reset. She’ll say so before she does it.
She’ll source the options
you name the subject — she fills in the real names
You don’t have to know the cast, the lineup, or the nominees. Tell her the subject and she’ll look it up and fill the poll options with actual names — not blank slots for you to type into.
She reads the room first
a guild-wide check before she posts anything new
Before creating a poll or scheduling an event, Tootsies scans every readable channel across the server for one that already exists. If she finds a match, she’ll point you to it instead of doubling up.
Times land in your timezone
“friday 8pm” means friday 8pm — not midnight utc
Discord stores events in UTC under the hood. Tootsies reads your plain-English time as ET (Eastern Time) — the server’s local timezone — so the event lands at the hour you said, not hours off because of a UTC conversion. If you include an explicit offset (“8pm CST”) she respects that instead.
