Four in a Row Twitch Overlay

Two viewers, seven columns, four in a row takes the pot.

A viewer challenges another, both stake points. They take turns dropping chips by typing a chat number 1 to 7, with a visible turn clock keeping the pace. If the board fills with no winner, both get their stake back.

What this overlay does

// In short

Everyone knows this one from childhood, which is why nobody needs the rules explained. A viewer types !vier and names their opponent, both stake points into the pot. Then they take turns: a number from 1 to 7 in chat drops their chip into that column, where it falls to the bottom. A visible turn clock on the left shows how much time is left, and the stake and the doubled pot sit as handles on the right of the board. Whoever connects four of their own chips first, horizontal, vertical or diagonal, wins and is paid the whole pot automatically. On a full board with no winner, both get their stake back. The board stays on screen permanently and is transparent when no one is playing.
