Audience Voting (Live)
Viewers can vote live on the Ask the Audience lifeline via phone – no QR code, only the website.
For the host
- After game start, the session API returns
vote_tokenandvote_url. - Share that URL on stream, e.g.
https://millionaer.suchanek.saarland/vote.php?game=GAMECODE - The game code is valid for the entire session (full evening).
- On the homepage, Audience voting appears only while a game is actually running (green dot = question active).
For viewers
- Open
/vote.php– the page auto-connects to the running game (optional: link with game code from the broadcast). - Read phase: “Voting opens soon.”
- Vote phase: Question with A/B/C/D buttons – one vote per device per question.
- Afterwards: Confirmation or “Voting ended” – no percentages on the phone.
Technical notes
| Topic | Behaviour |
|---|---|
| Real votes | If ≥1 vote received → only real percentages in the client |
| No votes | Existing simulation as before |
| Hybrid | Forbidden – never mixed |
| Protection | Device token in localStorage, no PIN |
The Windows client is unchanged; it still polls audience_flow.php.
