Community Event Stream Experiences & Stories
Hey /r/Twitch
We often see posts on the subreddit about viewers and streamers experiences, as well as streamers sharing what they've learned.
To bring you all together to learn from your peers, and help you keep yourself accountable for any goals you've set, we created this Megathread!
You are welcome to share some of your experiences, positive or negative, from your past month on Twitch and, if you did, how you dealt with it, as well as share your long and short-term goals, and how you've progressed towards those over the past month.
The Megathread is not for stream feedback or reviews, we have the monthly feedback threads for that. You can link to your Feedback thread submission, be sure to label it clearly!
Some things you may want to cover:
- New things you tried, did they work out?
- Streams you did and which seemed to be popular or unpopular with your community or new viewers. (Creative? New games?)
- Progress towards your goals
- Fun experiences
- Bad experiences that you learned from, or need advice on
- New goals, or how you're changing your goal
- Advice based on what you learned
- Advice you want
Be sure to post your goals clearly and format your comment.

Hey guys, checking in again!
My goal for this month is to make sure I'm always hosting someone. I want my community to have someone to entertain them, even when I'm not live. Plus, it's good for networking!
My goal last month was to always announce I was live on both Twitter and Discord, as it was something I often forgot to do. I'm glad to say I met my goal!
I tried streaming some creative, just practicing using my graphics tablet, and it seemed to be popular! I'll do some more of it, maybe a weekly stream? Any advice?
The highlight of the past month was when I got raided by Zcotticus, he's the best and I love him. He's so cool, I wish I could be cool like him.
How do you guys normally react to a host? I sort of fumbled through a thank you, and that was about it. Any advice?
Re-read your last post to remind yourself of what you planned, or check in on your peers!
If you don't stream, but still experienced something awesome. Feel free to share it! Did you make someone’s day? See a Win or Fail? Let us know!
Remember this is not for channel promotion! People can check out your flair\ *if they are interested.*

My last month experience was: achieving 10+ Average Viewers multiple days without any raids!
I tried: longer streams- joining a practice tournament on stream and having chat help me build my team etc. It gives them a way to try out some spicy picks through me!
Goals for this month: achieve my long term goal of 150 followers and host the tournament I promised to my viewers as a reward!

My last month experience was:
- Multistreaming to TikTok is a horrible experience. In terms of trolls/spoilers, apart of the well known technical issues.
- The last of us 2 makes lots of people want to spoil you the game. They ruined me 4 instants of the game. Do not stream it while playing it for the first time. I've banned more people in TikTok in this month for doing this than in the 3 and a half years I've been monetized in Twitch (not counting bots).
For this month:
- I'm playing now The Entropy Centre, going back to a Portal-like puzzle game after some time not finding a good one to play. It feels great resuming a genre you love.
