The whole "democracy" thing ruined it imo. Most of the fun in this game is the chaos and anarchy; this "democracy" just felt like cheating.

Democracy is like watching a slower Let's Play with more start9 and kills the point of the experiment. Anarchy is what made it fun. Without anarchy we wouldn't have gotten the outstanding nicknames we had, released the False Prophet, worshipped the Helix Fossil, and finally triumphed over the ledge. It's chaos but that's the point. Democracy makes it too easy and would result in people actually playing the game (were it not for start9).

What's this about democracy? I don't watch it very often
(Also this whole thing was a social experiment, so I guess that's the natural direction to go)
Anarchy and Democracy

TwitchPlaysPokemon now has two modes, anarchy and democracy.

Anarchy mode is the "old" mode, where everyone's inputs are applied immediately.

Democracy mode is vote-based and has a more sophisticated input system.

In order to switch from one mode to the other, the mode that isn't active needs 75% of votes as indicated by the dotted line, the current percentage of votes is indicated by the black line. In democracy mode you can compile a sequence of inputs. left2 will move left twice, left2down2 will move left twice and down twice.

Democracy was implemented solely to get trough the fucking Maze in Team rocket wich requires excessive coördination.
HAIL DEMOCRACY.

We must not tolerate the Domecrats!
(After all, I believe we completed the maze on Anarchy. Domecracy, sadly, was used only for the elevator and key, which we only needed patience for. Domecrats are corrupting our system!)
