Audience Voting (Live)

Viewers can vote live on the Ask the Audience lifeline via phone – no QR code, only the website.

For the host

  1. After game start, the session API returns vote_token and vote_url.
  2. Share that URL on stream, e.g. https://millionaer.suchanek.saarland/vote.php?game=GAMECODE
  3. The game code is valid for the entire session (full evening).
  4. On the homepage, Audience voting appears only while a game is actually running (green dot = question active).

For viewers

  1. Open /vote.php – the page auto-connects to the running game (optional: link with game code from the broadcast).
  2. Read phase: “Voting opens soon.”
  3. Vote phase: Question with A/B/C/D buttons – one vote per device per question.
  4. Afterwards: Confirmation or “Voting ended” – no percentages on the phone.
