I don't know if a similar thing will exist in STEAMWorks, but I always thought it would have been cool in Stronghold for the "Audience selection" to have been a digital vote with an app, and could incorporate votes from the stream chat as well. If there's a way to influence the field this year, having some kind of chat integration, even if it was a just-for-fun match and not an official competition match would be nifty.

I don't think driving an old FRC robot via Twitch chat would be smart (high chance of breaking the robot or someone getting hurt) but it would be neat to make some purpose-built robots with kit chassis and stuff and do Twitch-plays to control that. Maybe the chat only controls the drivebase, but a human controller does the other robot functions?

Heck..we're gonna have 11 Robot in 3 Days teams that will have functional robots by next Tuesday. Let's drive those!
