Comment on The UK Stop Killing Games petition has reached 100.000 signatures
sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 weeks agoThis is fucking bonkers.
I ran the math a fee days ago, before this absolutely blee the fuck up, and I came to:
We’d need 11k sigs per day until July 31st.
… We’re now apparently at more than double that and climbing.
Ho Lee Shit.
No need to do the math, this site has you covered: stopkillinggamestracker.pages.dev
Right now we need 1669 per day remaining, though that number is probably going ot be smaller by the time you click the link.
Worth noting that the actual target is somewhere above one million, since there’s probably some invalid signatures mixed in and the initiative needs a million even after these get removed. Still, it’s looking really good.
It’s been like this for a while and the actual page where you sign the initiative is down right now apparently =D

I’m just worried some of them are botted, especially now that we’re less than 100k away from 1m.

I mean, its not technically completely impossible, but the vast majority of EU countries require a valid name, id, address, etc, its usually a pretty dumb idea to bot spam an official government web portal, and I’m sure there will be a review process after July 31.
Also… its not like it hits a million and then just no one else can sign up to it anymore.
It’ll stay open till the end of the month, could easily breach a million, maybe even two million if anything like this insane rate keeps up.
