Hey,

These aren't 'gone forever', as no unique reward was in these drops. They're repeated from the LotD event which lasted for a week. Today's 1 hour Twitch Drops event was, obviously, to incentivize people to come and check the AMA with r/MMORPG.

The Drops are inflated and are only meant to be completed if you were there from the start of the stream till the end, it's basically ~6 hours of rewards squeezed in 1 hour.

It's completely time based and handled by Twitch. We streamed for 64 minutes and the 4 Drops are handed out every 15 minutes, so 60 minutes in total. If you didn't get all the drops it means that you missed a couple of minutes.

It's not really the most friendly Twitch Drops event I know, but you have to understand that I already squeezed loads of rewards into 15 minutes intervals only. We've never done that before and I just wanted to hand out rewards as fast as possible and as many as possible but within 1 hour. So while it has its ups (numerous rewards, short intervals) it also has its downs (tight time, favors first attendees).

For future Q&As I will make sure to make the time a bit more flexible at the cost of longer intervals or less rewards, because while the intent is to ensure attendance, I also don't want to upset anybody cause after all it's just a streaming event and everybody should enjoy it.

Another idea would be to see if whoever is hosting the twitch stream can just leave a trailer or something looping for a few minutes to give people a chance to finish up.

We had some last minute issues with getting the videos ready but yes it was our intent at first. Basically cities video (~4 minutes), trailer (~2 minutes) and latest released videos (~10 mins).

Seriously? I mean, if you need Warhammer montage videos to run as part of any Twitch Drop event, I know a guy.

No it wasn't having videos in hand, it was having them ready at that point as softcopies.
