Systems and methods that enable a user at a client device interacting with a live streaming platform to make one or more inputs to potentially influence an event occurring in association with a streaming device that is also interacting with the live streaming platform.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory device that stores a plurality of instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
- receive data associated with an input received from each of at least two client devices of a plurality of client devices that are each displaying a live stream comprising at least a portion of a play of a wagering game being displayed in association with a streaming device
- consolidate the inputs received from the at least two client devices to form a consolidated input, and
- communicate, to the streaming device, data that results in the streaming device displaying the consolidated input.

A device comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory device that stores a plurality of instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
- receive, from a live streaming platform server, data associated with a consolidated input based on a plurality of inputs received from a plurality of client devices in association with a live stream comprising at least a portion of a displayed play of a wagering game, and
- cause a display device to display the consolidated input in association with the portion of the displayed play of the wagering game, the consolidated input comprising one of a collective weighting of different inputs received from the plurality of client devices and different individual inputs received from the plurality of client devices.
2 more elements
A method of operating a system, the method comprising:
- receiving data associated with an input received from each of at least two client devices of a plurality of client devices that are each displaying a live stream comprising at least a portion of a play of a wagering game being displayed in association with a streaming device
- consolidating, by a processor, the inputs received from the at least two client devices to form a consolidated input, and
