I've heard they make very little money. Would you mind explaining further?
I think most don't make much, but the top streamers can make quite a bit. I think they bring in enough people that they're able to negotiate better deals with Twitch.

I got up prior to my vicky alert going off for once so of course she doesn't show up now. Sorry guys, my fault
I want to go make breakfast, but now I'm afraid to leave the computer. Totally blaming your for this.

I used to stream GTAV-RP stuff for a short while, mostly for fun and for a few friends to watch. I was watching someone doing the same thing and they had 2500 viewers having a bit war and he made $1k in just bits in about 10 minutes. There's a person i was watching last night that made several thousand in bits over the course of about 3 hours.

The reason its hard of course is generating that big of a viewer base to begin with. I'm not interesting enough to get those kind of views so mturk is the better solution for me hah.

I think good streamers make it look a lot easier than it really is. Being entertaining live for hours is a really tough thing to do, so if you don't have a lot of talent for that, you better be pretty damn good at video games.

Looks like a lot of competition these days. The key to success seems to be lots screaming and laughing at everything like it’s the funniest thing you’ve ever heard.

Why is it that the worst surveys never contain a feedback box for me to go off on them at the end? I am so sick of these ridiculous "probability" surveys that are barely intelligible.

"Next you will have 3 of these things with 44% of these things with a 1 in 1000 chance to win $2.50. However, if you get 2 of these 3 things you will only get $.40, but if you get these you will have a chance to blah blah blah..."

Do these people make these things just to mock us?
