Everyone on the list has been streaming consistently to give out drops because I watch most of them.
No, they haven't. I can give specific examples and to stay on the right side of the forum rules I am NOT encouraging witch-hunting these people.
MalForTheWin - has not streamed at all.
Malic_VR - has been streaming rebuilding his car engine instead of ED.
CaptainFlint - yesterday streamed Everspace 2 instead of ED.
CMDRAscorbius - did one stream four days ago and nothing since.
I admit
some of the others have been making more of an effort than usual - grinning_crow has done more streams than he regularly does (which is still less than daily), and unusualcupcake is being consistent but she's in the midst of a partner run.
But that doesn't change the fact that a significant portion of this "hand-selected" group have done a poor job of utilizing the privilege given to them.
Drops should either be given to everyone or no-one, not a chosen few.
Yesterday when none of the drops streamers were on, I looked at the ED category on twitch and there were less than ten people streaming with a combined total of less than two-hundred viewers. Nobody is going to keep streaming ED for audiences that small. The little streamers are already switching to other games and when the event is over the drops streamers will do the same.
(And before anyone suggests these numbers were because of the weekly tick - it was several hours before, I even spoke to HeatherG in somebody's chat at the time.)
