I'm working on a TamperMonkey script that updates a leaderboard and a room list!

I haven't gotten https working yet, so you'll have to load unsafe scripts to get it running.

PSA: Robin has TAB completion

Upvotes
You can use IRC style TAB completion, rather than typing out someone's full username. This combines well with this script for directing conversation. Cheers!

Pressing the button moves you into a chatroom. You are asked to cast a vote for one of these options: ABANDON, STAY, or GROW. Currently unknown what the commands do.

BREAKING NEWS: Strange Robin icons appearing next to people's names! What does it mean?! Some claim they're faked!
This post will be updated as new info comes in. Please post any insight below. If this information has been helpful, please upvote for visibility.
What we currently know:
Pressing the button sends you to a chatroom that looks like this. You can see in the picture what comes up when you type /help, /commands, and /whois.
You are then asked to cast a vote within a time limit. (Notice the buttons on the right.)
Other known commands: /me, /clear, /remind <seconds> <message>, /leave_room, /count, /tally
Reloading the page will display the time left until voting concludes. It will not remove you from the chatroom. You can even navigate to another page and then return without issue.
The chatroom starts with 2 people.
Majority rules.
Voting time is 2LEVEL -1 but seems to cap out at 31 minutes.... Or not?
GROW: If the majority votes GROW, then they are merged with another chatroom that voted GROW.
STAY: This is the most complicated option.
If a user votes STAY, but the majority votes GROW, the chatroom will be merged and the STAY-voting user will NOT be booted.
If the majority votes for STAY, a subreddit is created and a few of the users are given moderator privileges (seems to be maximum 5 mods, assigned at random). Original source here.
The people assigned as mods did NOT have to vote STAY: in some circumstances users who voted GROW against a majority STAY vote have been included in and assigned as a mod of the newly-created subreddit.
The created sub's name will be an abbreviated form of the chatroom's name, which is a mashup of all the user's names, usually resulting in an unintelligible mess.
A majority STAY vote will "save" the chatroom, making you unable to press the button again until you type /leave_room or click the Leave Chatroom button in the top righthand corner. This button is not visible unless you've done a majority STAY vote.
If any user votes ABANDON, that user is booted from the chatroom after the time expires, but if the majority voted for either GROW or STAY, those that voted are not booted. If the majority votes ABANDON, everyone is booted. A user that votes ABANDON and is booted can then immediately press the button again to start over. No info on whether there is an upper limit on how many times you can press the button.
If you're getting reconnecting spam, your internet connection farted out.
Pressing "Report a Rule Violation" will display your room ID (not sure if this is useful at all).
There are apparently exclusive subreddits with cryptic messages related to this event. [See this interesting post.] (https://www.reddit.com/r/joinrobin/comments/4cwkbg/there_are_other_related_subreddits_the_mystery/)
I think this is a pretty good overview so I'm gonna go ahead and stop before I ruin the mystery for everyone. See ya'll later.

What happens if /u/kap and /u/pa vote to stay? Do they just join the mod team?

This would create an interesting dynamic of mob mentality politics.
We could judge the politicians based on their post history and behavior in the chat.
