Hey r/Astros, a little bit ago I published a chrome extension that I have been working on for a while that some of you in here may find useful. It takes the comments from any reddit game thread and presents them as they come in on a ticker that shows directly above or below your game stream. Here is what it looks like in action: https://i.imgur.com/rxBXQI2.jpg (me using it for a game thread from the phillies sub the other day)

Here is a link to the extension in chrome: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/live-thread-ticker/kiggnkckiglahmnikkilmngphgingclp

It's also on firefox here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/live-thread-ticker/

To use the extension, all you have to do is add it to chrome or firefox using the corresponding link above, go to the game thread comments page and copy the full url, paste the url into the extension, go to wherever you stream the game from, and then play the stream and enjoy.

It also has a lot of different preferences like one being able to add a customizable time delay to the comments (we all know how streams can be behind cable and we don't want spoilers).

Please let me know what you think! Note: The chrome version also works with Microsoft Edge.
