Picking
Eeny’s main function is to pick a random user, either from the current channel or a custom list of users.
- List: @Eeny pick Awesome People
- Channel: @Eeny pick
In this example, “Awesome People” is the name of a custom list. You can create custom lists of users by following the instructions in the list guides.
When picking from a channel, Eeny will only pick users who are currently in the channel. When picking from a list, Eeny will only pick users who are on the list. If there are no users available to pick from, Eeny will let you know.
For more information, see the list guides.
Each time a new pick is started, it is independent of all previous picks. The result of one pick does not affect the result of another. As such, you might find the same user gets picked multiple times in a row. Remember, you’re in control – you can always click pick again if needed.
Pick Again
Section titled “Pick Again”There will be times when Eeny’s pick doesn’t fit the situation, for example, if the user isn’t available. Simply click the “Pick again” button after any pick. Eeny will find another user from the channel, or on the list. Eeny cycles through each user only once per pick session. If you’ve clicked ‘pick again’ through everyone available and there are no more suitable picks, the last user selected remains the final choice.
