Hey, some users (me and @MsDarkLow mainly) would really appreciate some sort of E3 countdown that could be requested from bot and since I suck at GIT, I am not able to open a PR for this. Here is a working code that I wrote (change it to your liking). It would be awesome if someone would implement this functionality. No configuration is needed since E3 is always (let's hope it stays that way too) at the same time every year, so I made it future-proof.

    //E3 usually starts with MS at 20:00 utc
    msg = "";
    DateTime e3 = new DateTime((DateTime.Now.Month >= 6 && DateTime.Now.Day > 11) ? DateTime.Now.Year + 1 : DateTime.Now.Year, 6, 11, 20, 0, 0).ToUniversalTime();
    TimeSpan e3left = e3.Subtract(DateTime.Now.ToUniversalTime());

    if ((DateTime.Now.ToUniversalTime().DayOfYear > 162) && (DateTime.Now.ToUniversalTime().DayOfYear <= 166))
    {
        msg = "E3 " + DateTime.Now.ToUniversalTime().Year + " is happening right now!";
    }
    else
    {
        msg = "E3 " + e3.Year + " starts with Microsoft's conference on " + e3.ToShortDateString()
            + Environment.NewLine + "Time to E3: " + ((e3left.Days > 0) ? e3left.Days + " days, " : "") + e3left.Hours + " hours, " + e3left.Minutes + " minutes left.";
    }
