Twitch Plays Pokemon Or Finding Chaos In Order

I discovered something today that has apparently been going on for nearly 11 days on streaming site Twitch.tv. This amazing event involves the ever fluctuating number of players watching the stream and an emulation of Pokemon Red. This particular emulation is amazing in that everyone signed into the community chat can have a hand in controlling the action onscreen. With so many players essentially fighting for the same controller at the same time, there is definitely more potential for chaos than order. There are groups of people both attempting to honestly play the game together with a hive mentality, while there are those looking to bring down the entire thing by trying to "break the system". It's a remarkable social experiment, and it proves how polarized factions of our population really are. If you want to be a part of the chaotic fun, you can join in at Twitch Plays Pokemon.
