Custom Abilties - Counting and manipulating

[TobyFox2002]

Well, I'm stymied.
I've tried to find a way to do two things and just cant seem to figure it out.

First, I want to count the number of times I've taken the same Custom Ability.
For instance, say I have the ability "Ice Armor," which can be taken more than once, each time you take it you gain an additional +1 natural armor.

I've tried hero.tagcount[xIceArmor], doesnt do anything.

Second, I have created a User tag and applied it to certain custom abilities.
I want to count how many seperate Custom Abilities with that tag the user has taken.

For example, they have taken "Accelerate Movement," and "Knight's Puissiance." Both have the tag EvovleMind.

So I've tried hero.tagcount[User.EvolveMind] and nothing happens it returns a zero or one. I can test if the user has or does not have a Custom Ability with that tag but I cant seem to count the number they have.

Is what I am looking for even possible?
