My friend wants to make a command that is !tag

[burntmic]

so my friend wants to make a command that is !tag and have it pick someone that is active in chat and not someone who is just watching. they want it to say something along the lines of !tag [user] tagged (the code we need) ᕕ(✿•̀︿•́)ᕗ. is there a way to make it like the command !winner were it should pick someone random that has been active in chat?

Hey @burntmic!

It’s not possible at the moment, but have a look there:

[Suggestion] Add a random user variable

Hey there! Do you think you could add a $(randomuser) variable? It seems to me that the !winner command could easily be slightly modified to add this variable. Questions you may ask for which I already have an answer for: • Why would we need such variable if we can already use an API that pull the users list from the chat to then pick a name randomly? → The issue with the current method is that is calls out lurkers since it’s not based on the users activity, and it’s not really desired. • …

The only API available for this right now will return a random viewer, but not (only) an active one (so bots, etc will be included.)
