The idea is to raid random channels together with everyone on the site. Channels are randomly selected and rotate every 5 minutes, and the channel selection function gives preference to smaller streamers. Users vote on which channel to raid next.
This is interesting because you can incentivise people to go to other streams by offering them multipliers for every raid they join (or something). You'd have a network of people who are watching ads for the chance of having their ad watched!
Reminds me of those mid 2000s sites where you'd watch ads to earn credits to either cash out or spend on your own ads. Was always the default answer to "how to make money online". Forget what the name for that type of site was.
Which TwitchCon did you go to? I had the exact same idea but my team ended up going with something else. It's cool that you ended up actually hosting it after the hackathon ended. Do you know how many people are still using it?
Neat! I've had this idea in my head for a while but could never find a good way to get the data in a way I wanted it. Really neat app though, good work
