"anarchy" mode is, if i understand correctly, in such a way that all commands are passed to the emulator. Then, simulating a real game boy, most of them are discarded (think about pressing left-up-right-down in a gameboy, with a delay of a few milliseconds.. only left would be registered and the other ignored). democracy seems to be a system in which everyone votes and the command which is more popular is executed (i don't know the timeframe). to switch from one mode to the other 75% of votes are required in some timespan

Yeah, for anarchy mode to truly work, it would be better to give 1 second or so delays between each queued command. It seems pointless to have it send them all at once, or only a few ms apart. As for democracy mode, it seems to be sending a command once the top command receives 100+ votes.

  The german newspaper Spiegel Online claims that the democracy mode waits for 5s to choose the most popular command.

  There is a huge lag on the stream, around 20-30 seconds meaning if you send a command you are controlling the game 30 seconds later. When democracy is in effect it takes votes for a time period(5-10 seconds?) and then chooses an action. http://www.reddit.com/r/twitchplayspokemon/comments/1y8o60/anarchydemocracy_explained/ http://www.reddit.com/r/twitchplayspokemon/comments/1y8o60/a...
