Slack has the /remind command that allows you to set a reminder in a channel. I am trying to have slack remind me every fortnight starting from next Saturday at 8pm to jump on a call. It seems like an extension of the help documentation.
I tried:
/remind @here Fortnightly planning and retro every fortnight from saturday at 8pm
but it didn't work and the reminder states:
I will remind space-racing “planning and retro every fortnight from saturday at 8pm” at 9AM every other Saturday (next occurrence is April 22nd).
Any thoughts? thanks in advance

Is there a way to set up a bi-weekly reminder for a channel? Yes! You can do so by typing: /remind #channel thing today at 13:45 and every other week.
Type /remind list in the message field and send the message to view a list of your upcoming, past and incomplete reminders. To view and manage reminders for a particular channel, type /remind list in the message field and send the message in that channel.

Slack offers a Remind feature that can help keep things from slipping through the cracks. You might not have noticed it, however, so let me show you how to use it to remind yourself, your colleagues, or even delay action on a message. You can access Remind two different ways.
Send your message to schedule the reminder. Slackbot will send the person a DM with the reminder details, or post a message to the channel you specified. From a channel or DM, tap the message field. Tap the lightning bolt icon to open the shortcuts menu.
Slack has a feature which helps users set a recurring message, to help them remember things and help lift the workload on them. To set up recurring messages effectively on the Slack system, the users could use the reminder feature to get Slackbot to send a recurring message.
I was trying to do this today also. Either of these options work:
Needs to be run the week before you want it to start:
/remind me to "ABC" every other Saturday 8pm /remind me to "ABC" Saturday 8pm every 2 weeks Otherwise specify the start date
/remind me to "ABC" Jun 19th 8pm every 2 weeks /remind me to "ABC" next Saturday 8pm every 2 weeks Slackbot told me:
I will remind you to “ABC” at 8PM every other Saturday (next occurrence is June 19th).
