The twitch drop situation was definitely sketch today.
First, notification about the stream itself was bad. I did not know it was happening for a while because they didn't put in on their news screen at all, which I thought was strange
News Screen
And then I realized what was happening because the Gift of the Lotus alerts went active.
But even though I got there late, the stream went super long today, so I still managed to catch 30 minutes of the stream (and I counted the time). I was relieved that it was a long stream, because I thought I was going to get the drop. But it turns out, the drops portion of the stream went off before they were done with the stream. So we're sitting there watching them do the devstream, and not earning progress toward the drop because it got taken down early for some reason.
So let's recap.
-Don't tell people about the Stream in game
-Post Gift of the Lotus at a time when you barely have enough of the stream left to get drops
-Still don't get the reward, because the drops portion gets taken down prematurely.
-Make the drop reward so insane that the Fomo is just painful
If you're going to make the reward 3 entire time gated archon shards, then tell people in game that your stream is happening.
Also apparently some people who watched the whole thing still didn't get their shards for some reason. Just a big mess today.
