Discord Voting Games Bot

A bot for Discord that makes ranking/voting games easier to manage and create. Comprises a number of simple media ranking games such as "Upvote/Downvote" "Left or Right", "Rank 1 through 5", "Hug/Kiss/Punch", etc. Automatically creates threads from messages.

When a channel is configured to use this bot, messages without media attachments are automatically deleted; Messages with media attachments are populated automatically with the appropriate reaction emoji (i.e., if the channel's "game mode" is "Upvote/Downvote", the message will automatically have the emojis "⬆️" and "⬇️" applied).

Available Games include:

• Rank 1 through 5
• Rank 1 through 10
• Left or Right
• Left Right or Middle
• Upvote/Downvote
• Hug/Kiss/Punch

By default, the game is "Upvote/Downvote". This can be configured by invoking /set_game_type. This setting effects an entire channel so it is suggested that if you want a "Hug/Kiss/Punch" game, you create a channel for that and configure the bot appropriately within that channel. By default, users can only make one emoji reaction selection. This can be configured by invoking /set_allow_multiple By default, threads are automatically created by the bot. This can be configured by invoking /set_auto_threading By default, additional emojis reactions outside of those posted by the bot are automatically deleted (will be configurable in a later version)
