Hey! thanks for your comments, really appreciate it. Genius idea to get the data into MS teams, I barely use the app so would never have thought of it.
I'm just about to go out though, so will have to reply tomorrow

Hi! thanks for all the input. I'll go through it and make sure I understand you properly:
- NEW Custom Name/Area String directly below current Title
There's one thing I can suggest for now, and then a longer-term solution I'll have to work on. As an immediate but temporary solution you can colour code your calendars (CPT7 in pink, CityPower10 in brown, Stellenbosch in orange, etc) and you can customise the name of those calendars. It's not perfect, but you can do that today.
For the long term however, I do want to make this a tool for businesses to use in their workflows. I've opened #58 to track progress. The full solution will probably depend on the project having a website (see #16, and I've got a friend who's also interested in making progress on that issue) due to technical reasons which make customizing the titles of every event a bit tricky.
What I'm also going to look into though, is developing a fleet of bots for Slack, MS Teams, Telegram, etc (see #60). The bots would still just provide you with loadshedding information, but the technology behind them is a lot more powerful so you'd be able to customise them a lot more. They could send a message to a group channel when someone starts/finishes loadshedding, or could just send the team a message when new loadshedding schedules are announced.
- Custom Emoji/Icon
This is cool. Unfortunately changing the title of the event would fall peril to the same technical issues mentioned above, so I'll bring up this idea in the tracking issue #58.
But another idea might be to allow team members to have their status automatically set depending on loadshedding status. So if you've got no power, you might see "Boyd (status: 🕯)" and if you've got no power but do have internet you might see "Boyd (status: 🔦)" and finally if you've got power you might see "Boyd (status: ⚡️)". The emojis would probably be customisable in the final result, but that's the basic idea. This might be easier to implement with the bots #60 but probably also possible with the custom event names #58.
Hope that clears things up, and thanks for the input! I'll close this issue in a few days unless you've got some other questions / ideas / suggestions.
