it was a pretty great of example of what being a twitch streamer is like

Normally I don't respond to negativity. But...
I wasn't doing this to garner more viewers. I was doing it as a thanks.
Some streamers will do a drinking event. Some will do 24-48 hour streams. Cosplay...etc etc. There are certain benchmarks that can cause a streamer to initiate "events" like these.
Meeting a donation goal ( which IMO - if you are only going to do an event based on monetary gains - then you are doing it wrong ).
Some do it when they get a Follower Train/Sub Train. I mean like massive numbers of followers or Subs in one streaming session.
Some do events at 100 followers, 500, 1000 etc etc...
When I hit 500 I wanted to thank everyone. I didn't know what I wanted to do. I don't drink alcohol anymore. I have a full time job, wife and two kids. My scheduling will almost never allow me to do a 24 or even a 48 hour stream. So one of my viewers suggested the Reaper. It was a popular idea, several people jumped on the Reaper bandwagon. I said F' it. And agreed.
While I know some people may not understand Twitch.tv, or even "get it"... pls don't diminish what I was trying to do. I was saying thanks to my friends and followers.
I think the only thing I asked anyone to do during that stream was copy and paste some chat icons...
Try not to hate so much.
Also thanks to all those who did stop by!
Update: I was up for several hours with indigestion and stomach cramping...finally fell asleep at around 4am, . woke up at 10am. and well... I don't think I would recommend it actually. Initially I did, its got a great flavour, and amazing heat. I think cooking with it would be actually very enjoyable. My bum hurts
