Twitch Chat Strawpoll Helper Extension

This extension has 2 primary functions:

First, it replaces the links to Strawpoll in the chat from, for example, \"http://strawpoll.me/1234567\" to a customizable, easily-readable link, such as \"Strawpoll 1234567: Do you like the New Group Qualifying?\"

Second, it replaces all links from the screamer website \"Strawpoii\" to their respective Strawpoll.me URLs.

Email me at [email protected] for bug reports, suggestions, complaints, etc.

Version 1.1: Initial release!
Version 1.11: Fixed a bug where it would treat \"http://strawpoll.me/10http://strawpoll.me/10\" as a valid Strawpoll link.

P.S. An option I am considering adding is to vote for a Strawpoll via chat with a command like \"/vote
