Neat, I wanna try this

:+1: The prob with Gimli/Hubot in this regard is that it only operates in public channels, and to interact with it, you must post a message. So there goes your anonymity. However, Slack allows you to create custom slash commands (see Integrations page in Slack). You might be able to set something up that uses those, and doesn't output anything.

Then you don’t need gimli to be anonymous at all? It would just be the slash commands adding to the tallies?

Looks like we'd have to setup an HTTP endpoint for it to work. Does the heroku instance that's running Gimli have the ability to respond to GET or POST requests?
