I think a nice new feature would be if a user could click on an "update" link in each comment which would signal the bot to update the specified comment with either an updated countdown, or a new countdown if the game was not previously recognised.
Use case:
User posts !ReleaseDate request
Bot replies to !ReleaseDate request with necessary reply
(Another) user clicks Update link which sends a PM to the bot account
Bot receives PM and adds comment to a queue of comments to update
Comment is updated with current countdown
Considerations
There should be a limit on how frequently comments can be updated. (5 minutes?)
I need to investigate to see if PRAW can correctly pick up PMs and edit posts
Part of this task should probably include a better queueing mechanism to allow for concurrent comment parsing, editing & picking up any new PMs
