Oh, this is the greatest thing ever! :biggrin: Okay, Twitch Plays Pokemon is a streaming of Pokemon Red/Blue. But the people playing the game is everyone in the chatroom. People can type in input commands like up, down, left, right, a, b, start and Red (the trainer) will do it. But there are over 90,000 people giving Red commands at once. I bet you can imagine how this'll go. With sooooo many people attempting to play the game at once, you get a lot of Red just walking into walls, opening and closing the start menu over and over, and walking in and out of doors. It's both frustrating and hilarious to watch. But miraculously, after over 5 days of streaming, they actually made progress. They're currently in Celadon City. You can watch as well as participate in the madness here: http://www.twitch.tv/twitchplayspokemon
