 `tags` - Comma-delineated list of tags to look for in each announce message. The script is just performing simple string comparisons on the entire message, so the 'tag' can be any substring appearing in the announce message. Note that this is essentially an OR operation. I'm too lazy to get more complex than that.  
+`blacklist` - Comma-delineated list of blacklisted tags. Same as `tags`, except if any of these are found in the announce message the bot skips the entire message. This parameter is optional.
