 - `arg <idx>` - Takes the message sent to the channel, splits by space and returns the Nth element
 - `channelCounter <counter name>` - Wraps the counter name into a channel specific counter name including the channel name
 - `counterValue <counter name>` - Returns the current value of the counter which identifier was supplied
-- `fixUsername <username>` - Ensures the username no longer contains the `@` prefix
+- `fixUsername <username>` - Ensures the username no longer contains the `@` or `#` prefix
+- `followDate <from> <to>` - Looks up when `from` followed `to`
 - `group <idx>` - Gets matching group specified by index from `match_message` regular expression
 - `recentGame <username> [fallback]` - Returns the last played game name of the specified user (see shoutout example) or the `fallback` if the game could not be fetched. If no fallback was supplied the message will fail and not be sent.
 - `tag <tagname>` - Takes the message sent to the channel, returns the value of the tag specified
