Boxing Manager 2- Ring Master Extension Features
The WCBM2 Twitch extension has three different types of polls that are available. They are only available during career-mode, not story mode.
Vote on Trinkets for your Boxer
Let your viewers vote on a trinket to give your boxer buffs in their next match! Viewers can vote in the first half of a month for a trinket that can be utilized by your boxer. This occurs near game time and the winning trinket of the vote gets dropped into your inventory in-game. Viewers will get to select from a randomized set of trinkets that can be used once by the streamer. Duplicate trinkets can occur; trinkets not part of a poll can be used five times).
Vote on Random Events
For better or worse, your viewers can vote on random events the second half of the month. Chat can decide if you get a boost, or will your boxing gym have some tough times? Will your boxers have a late night from partying too hard dropping their overall energy? Or will they get a great night’s rest and see decreased energy loss during a match? Now, chat can decide.
Vote on Opponent Tactics & Items
Usually, your opponent will be controlled by AI, but this voting mode allows chat to make all the calls. Viewers get to vote on both the tactics and the items your opponent uses between rounds.
Viewers get to decide if they’re going to play neutral or take risks determining what your opponent will be throwing at you. At the same time, they’ll be selecting an item to buff your opponent for the next round. Health and stamina boosts are overall or temporary and some items (ice pack and swab) have a three-round cooldown. Be sure to communicate that cool down to your chat!
Use Channel Points to Play as Opponent
The overall opponent vote lets the audience control your opponent together, but if someone in chat wants to play against you solo, they can use Channel Points. When a viewer uses Channel Points, they become the sole decision maker for your opponent. Other viewers can vote to sway your chat opponent, but their vote will not be counted. Not only will this Chat Opponent be the sole decision maker, but their Twitch name will also be your Opponents name.

Extension Issues
If your viewers aren’t seeing votes, you may be in Story Mode, you may not have the Boxing Manager 2 Extension activated, or not have successfully paired the extension and should reset your PIN in the Twitch Extension config and try to pair again.
Remember - the Twitch interactivity only works in Career Mode.
How to Configure the Extension Features
The Twitch Extension settings are available in-game in the Option menu. Just click the Muxy GameLink button in the Gameplay section.
The Twitch Settings menu appears on the right side. Reset to default settings will turn the top 3 features off and only have the “Play as Opponent Feature” turned on.
We suggest turning all the features on. All polls will play and run automatically for viewers while they are turned on. If you want to play a section without chat vote, we suggest turning that feature off during that time period. For example, every boxing match you play with Opponent Tactics/Items Poll turned on will effectively be you playing against Twitch chat.
