i get that he wants to do it his way, and not do a countdown
but he's trashing EVERYONE, he's been defending his lack of a countdown for 20 minutes straight, and now his entire chat is toxic
he's the only streamer the entire event that hasn't done a countdown, and he KNOWS he is pissing everyone off, defending his actions, and making everything awful
it's not the worst that he's not doing a countdown, but he's treating everyone like trash, if a bungie employee was watching his stream right now, they would cut sponsorship, it's just awful, look for yourself
you don't have to take my word for it
* * * EDIT * * *
for those wondering what the countdown is, when bungie bounties stream, there is a delay
if you try to team up with him (or against him) by watching his stream exclusively, it will never happen; because if you team up when you see him team up, in real life he's already fighting a match
so they do a "countdown" via TEXT in the stream so everyone knows when to team up with the bungie bounty, today, Gothalion broke tradition and flat out refused to do so
not only did he refuse, he called his fans "crybabies" "meanies" "bullies" "trolls" while also telling them to "get over it" "have fun" "shut up" "do something else"
this guy is getting publicly sponsored and free advertisement on the official bungie site with the official bungie brand, this event wasn't done out of the good will of his heart on his own time, it was a business contract
i don't care either way, i want the emblem, i'm maxed grimoire, and don't care who i earn it from, but today was a travesty, *Gothalion's actions cannot go unnoticed, it was a complete dud to participate today, he bitched on stream for over an hour, and continued to do so even after the event was over

im trying to phrase this in an un-antagonizing manner, but i dont think i can so just take this preface instead. sorry dude but all i can gleam from your post is "waah i didnt get as good a chance as i thought i could because he didnt do this one arbitrary thing!" so let me break down my rational: "they would cut sponsorship" ok so this might just be me, but i dont recall ever seeing anything about how community events like these are official sponsorship ans what-not. i thought they were just bungo going 'hey guyz we gun do dis u down?' and the spotlighted players would be all like 'ye im down!' pro-bono comes to mind. thats assuming there isnt any actual official contract. but if there is, then he'll basically be reprimanded by bungie and that'll be the end of it. "he's the only streamer the entire event that hasn't done a countdown" appeal to tradition fallacy. thats pretty much all that needs to be said about that. [not only did he refuse, he called his fans "crybabies" "meanies" "bullies" "trolls" while also telling them to "get over it" "have fun" "shut up" "do something else"] so why dont they take his suggestion? i mean, they knew he was hosting the thing, so in that sense they came for him, so why are they complaining about the house rules when they're guests? get over it or just leave, anything else and yeah, your basically being what he said. like, do you go to burger king and demand a taco? if you dont get what you want then leave, dont start throwing a female-dog fit. "i don't care either way, i want the emblem, i'm maxed grimoire, and don't care who i earn it from, but..." the crux of your post, really. all you wanted was the emblem, you didnt get it, but you think you have a shot against the guy you project your own feelings about on.
