Pirate might’ve actually helped a lot more than he hindered. I signed mostly to spite people like him.
All it took was one of the most insufferable people on YouTube to become the enemy. I for my part am happy with that. We collectively burned his ego on the pyre and Fortuna accepted our offer.
Edit: Dude! Happy cake day!
Oh, thanks, I hadn’t noticed myself!
Pewdiepie’s support might have helped too.
@quediuspayu And GamersNexus, Asmongold… there are a lot of people suddenly embracing it after Mr. Hall screwed up so hard.
Jeff Geerling put out a video on it earlier too. He has nearly a million subs, all of them massive geeks (myself included). :D
UK looks like it’s going to cross the line in the next few minutes.
Up about 50k from ten hours ago. I think we’ll reach the threshold in 60 hours at this rate, accounting for the fact that Europeans sleep for a portion of the day.
E: goal reached!
accounting for the fact that Europeans sleep for a portion of the day.
…they get to sleep for a portion of the day???
This is unfair!
What? That is an insane climb in signers, it was 700k just yesterday, right?
Amazing :D
Let’s hope there isn’t a huge number of fake ones
Last I can firmly put my finger on was just short of 750K last night when I was going to bed. It looks like about 110 - 120 signings per minute at the moment, give or take.
At time of writing this post is 43 minutes old and it’s up around 5000 signatures.
edit: The UK one is just about to cross 90%. Only 90 signatures to go. They are flying in. It has a nice realtime counter whereas the EU one needs a refresh.
edit2: UK just crossed 90%. They will complete some time this evening at the current rate.
There’s a live tracker with tons of stats over on stopkillinggamestracker.pages.dev
Oh that’s cool. The graphs show a massive ramp up in the last few days and it’s accelerating.
~~We get shittier big block buster movies
We get higher prices
We made snacks more expensive than gold
We keep increasing the amount of commercials
Why aren’t you coming?~~
Edit: replied to wrong message
Assuming you’re a fellow USian, this ain’t the right thread, friend. I mean I agree that everything is shittier here, but we should be celebrating the sudden surge for the SKG petition.
That said, I’m so happy to see this much support for it. Wish I could sign it myself. Hopefully this is only the first step.
I somehow responded to the wrong post here, actually. It was about AMC being a dick again with now having 25-30 minutes of commercials and trailers before a movie
Ah, gotcha. What a boneheaded decision on their part. They should be incentivising potential moviegoers, not punishing them.
