thanks for making corrections to your process. thanks for putting in the effort and absorbing the criticisms and turning them into something contructive even when the poster is overly negative.

How authentic is UltraGamer's numbers? Are they not skewed by bots? You allow bots in your determining of stats? Seems to not properly represent "top" streamers, just streamers who have a high view count. "view" count.


Of course authentic - Twitched "cleared" WInter's stream, PatchToss obviously is not cheating too since he has the same number of viewers as Winter.

SC2 streamers ranking looks pretty sad to me.


In afreeca, there are two numbers: total viewers and numbers of people currently in your chat room you were randomly selected in.
Seems like he took numbers from people in the chat room he is currently in.

Kinda ridiculous how he just took some random numbers from a site without knowing what they mean

Woah woah woah, you're jumping to conclusions here. The numbers come from the Afreeca API. Each stream has multiple viewer counts listed for it, and I happened to use the "current viewer count" metric, which apparently doesn't include mobile viewers (it's listed as "desktop viewers" on Afreeca). It's true that I wasn't aware that "current viewer count" doesn't include all viewers (maybe it did before? I can't check, unfortunately), but it's not like I went to Afreeca, picked a random number and used that as the metric.


Still a simple check on the sidebar would have sufficed to see that your numbers are totally off and should not be published as such. Look at https://bwstreams.appspot.com/. Their current viewers are all by about an order of magnitude higher than your estimates.

You should take your estimates out as otherwise it could be wrongly cross-referenced.

Appreciate your effort, but please be careful next time.

Ultragamer500's meteoric stream rise seems really similar to how Winter's stream rose. Great to have these mega ethical businessmen in our community.

BW is love, BW is life.

Misrepresenting BW's popularity is a serious offense

It's very much appreciated that he puts in a lot of effort to bring these statistics. However, I'm sure he understands that bringing out erroneous statistics (and not by a small margin) can backfire and be interpreted as intentionally misleading, regardless of good intentions or not. So while I do not condone aggressive and spiteful feedback, I am not surprised by it occuring.

Man, lemme tell ya, I'm really loving that Ultragamer stream. He's such a refreshing new streamer, he brings a lot of insight to the game. I've learned so much from watching his stream, I'm so excited he's finally getting the viewership he deserves! After watching him stream for about 10 days, it's obvious he's very dedicated to SC2. And the best part is, his chat is so active!
This is a fucking joke. Fuck you. - RIP IdrA
