Viewer Games

[onscreen]

I used to run gathers on Quakenet IRC and thought this would be great if this was implemented into the bot.

For example we play counter-strike which is 5v5 format. people would !add and then the bot would auto pick the teams, you could even have the bot take some points from the people that lost and give to the people that won the game afterwards, etc.

A lot of streamers do viewer/sub games, I can give full details of how these bots work on IRC, but would have to be adapted to work on twitch IRC of course. I even have the full .mrc code if it would help.

Sorry - dont quite understand the feature you are requesting. Please could you elaborate?

Myself and a lot of other streamers play games with their viewers/subscribers. I am currently doing this manually via getting people to enter a raffle and I manually pick them out and pick the teams manually over teamspeak.

Here's how it used to work on Quakenet.
mod types !startgame
people type !add if they want to play
mod types !closegame

bot now picks 9 random people from all the people that typed !play to play with the mod that typed the !startgame and puts them into two teams of 5. Team1 and Team2.
After the game is over the mod would type !result 1 or !result 2 depending on which team won.

This is the basics of it, but there is so much more you could do. For example it could cost 10 points to type !add and then the winning team splits all the points. Also you could apply rating to each player to balance the teams automatically. all players start at 1500 rating, and win/loose rating depending on if they win or loose.

Let me know if you think you could do someting like this and we can talk futher over Skype or IRC? Let me know.

I would also be willing to pay for your time to just have this for my own stream, an addition to the bot maybe or something like that, let me know.

I rather like this idea, it's basically taking your viewer queue system, accepting unlimited numbers of entries during a finite time period, then using an RNG to determine which entries are selected for a specified max value (team size).
