A few ideas were thrown around with a third-party server and captcha necessary to validate your twitch account to send commands.

People working on it say it's being handled, but it definitely isn't a bad idea to brainstorm.

What about setting up a second site with a form: enter twitch name and answer a turing test question. also ask for person to create a new turing question with answer. Person has ability to request a few new questions before deny.

Submitted questions are approved by admins via rapid fire Y/N buttons, with ability to fix typos, etc.

This authenticates that user for something like 5-15 minutes or however long to participate in voting.

this kind of defeats the purpose of twitch chat
