A 30 Year Old Gamer

At around 2 o’clock on a Saturday morning, I witnessed some magic happen. I was watching a random streamer on Twitch named Ohmwrecker and as he was about to sign off he did something very generous. He told all his viewers, about 130 of them, to go and “raid” another random streamer’s channel. 

This streamer was Alpha_archonette who at the time had only 6 viewers (and 408 followers). The “raid” boosted her views to 151 viewers and 116 additional followers that morning. Throughout her entire stream, she carried on,  astonished by the amount of people that were watching and interacting in her stream. 

It was the most magical thing to watch because, here is this girl who is casually streaming for some friends all of a sudden She’s catapulted on to the screens of 116 people she doesn’t know. That’s the equivalent to hearing the your song on the radio for the first time, it doesn’t get any better than that!
