Donation Auction for Your Stream
A viewer's donation becomes a lot, not just a number in the feed - the most generous lot wins while the timer runs.
How the auction works
A donation's text becomes the lot's name, and its amount becomes its weight: several donations on the same lot add up. The lot with the highest amount when the timer runs out wins.
The timer can be extended by every new donation - the "donations add time" option keeps the auction from cutting off mid-surge of viewer activity.
How the auction differs from the roulette
In the auction, there's no wheel spin - the lot with the highest amount wins, deterministically, with no element of chance. The roulette (in its own tab) is a chance proportional to the amount - you can lose even after donating the most.
Both formats share the same lots and donations - you can start with an auction and finish with the roulette or the Royal Tower without starting over.
How to start it in 2 minutes
Open the panel (/panel), set the timer duration, and hit "Start". A donation with any text creates a lot automatically - you can test with random donations right in the panel without connecting real ones.
Frequently asked questions
What happens when the time runs out?
The lot with the highest donation total at that moment wins - the result is visible immediately, no extra draw needed.
Can donations extend the timer?
Yes, optionally: turn on "donations add time" - each new donation extends the countdown by a set number of seconds.
Do I have to spin the roulette afterward?
No - the auction is self-contained and ends on its own when the timer runs out. The roulette and the Royal Tower are separate, optional formats for the same lots.
