I played it for a while, it was fun but a bit frustrating having to fight the people trying to turn god mode off.
God mode is now turned on without an option to turn it off.

100% - the delay is as low as I can get it. Twitch uses RTMPE for the most part, it's always going to be a little delayed. It's a decent box, compression is on, connected to fibre internet. If anyone has any ideas of reducing latency I'd love to hear it!
Why not time dilate? Could make it a variable setting that users can control. At some setting, it'd be fast enough to send commands and win fights without god mode. Or you could execute the command for a second, then pause the game execution. Make it closer to turn-based Doom.
Allowing a reasonable number of consecutive actions might help, too. Like if I want to go forward two steps and turn 90 degrees to the right, I could send "wwddd." Not as necessary in Twitch Plays Pokemon, but could do wonders here.
But as mentioned, it would have to be capped to some number to prevent abuse.

I think the delay is due to Twitch itself.

Oh wow. The 8 seconds is Twitch?! Yikes.
I am unfortunately completely ignorant of how you actually send data to Twitch, but can you use H264? It has an "ultra-low latency" mode.
Edit: Hmm, you're on OBS. Maybe you could stream using some uncompressed low-latency option from OBS to ffserver, then reencode on ffserver to low-latency H264. Alternatively, you could use ffmpeg with its X11 capture option, pointed at eg Xvfb.

I don't get that war - configure your editor to convert your tabs to spaces. Precision.
Ah, but then you commit and someone else pulls the source code down and their carefully crafted N space per tab setting is now worthless since you decided how long tabs should be for them. Then they post an angry rant on some mailing list about how forcing tabs to spaces forces people with various reading disabilities into a tabstop setting that makes it hard to read. And before too long it's devolved into the same o…
Before that, your diff looks ugly and you generate tons of merge conflicts by useless indentation changes.

But... your team just enforces a style. No debate. Two spaces for Ruby I've seen almost everywhere. Two for Elixir, same. Go has go fmt. This hypothetical of different spaces is killed before it happens.

Having a style ends the debate yes. Configuring your editor to automatically replace tabs with spaces does not end the debate. It starts it.

You don't expect factions? Religious wars have been raged over tabs vs spaces... tab is 2, 3 or 4 spaces... bracket on this line vs the next... Factions are normal and I would expect them to coalesce, polarize and get more extreme over time.

You mean convert spaces to tabs, right? ...right?!
