Yeah Jet seemed to be trying to walk the 50k claim back last night.
57k peak. Also with the math graf is doing there you can figure out the amount of viewers with his follow up tweet where he said it was peak aprox 228TB.
I would assume their counting views by accounts logged in to view. Rather than who is viewing any individual stream.
First day I saw 14k and was creeping up constantly. I think it's a legit number for peak viewers. And lines up with the math.
 
They really need to stop going in there with the cameras. I can understand maybe going there in person to do whatever. But cameras up in their faces does not seem like a good idea.
They try hard to make them lose focus lol.

am i the only person that wants no one to be voted out? vance, mauro, and hog might not be on the same level as johntent or josietainment but more people means more content. remember the nightly alliance bromance sessions? people need to embrace the slow burn.
It feels like too small of a pool of people to kick out. I feel the dynamic and peoples closeness will weaken quite a bit as people get voted off since major change is the autist's biggest fear.
 
sorry for asking to be spoonfed, but as someone who doesn't watch twitch or other livestreams, is fishtank getting high viewership, or would those average viewership numbers be considered normal/midtier?
They peaked at 57k simultaneous viewers, which would be a very popular stream on Twitch. It's about how many viewers used to watch Trump press conferences, SpaceX launch streams on YouTube, or developer streams for AAA game developers. The top daily streamers on Twitch get about 80k-100k, and specific events like tournaments can go up to 400-600k.

Figured I'd pull some numbers for comparison. Right now, 1:30 PM EST, is hardly peak viewership time, but I'm not going for perfect analytics here. Also there's some big multi-game tournament going on, so numbers are skewed.

Top viewed streams on Twitch right now:

113k - League of Legends tournament
85.7k - CS:GO tournament
45.3k - Valorant tournament
22.3k - Fortnite tournament

56.6k - top Minecraft stream (xQc, one of the top variety streamers)
37.5k - top Dead Island 2 stream (another variety streamer)
20.3k - top "Just Chatting" stream
19.4k - top Dota 2 stream
16.7k - top LoL stream (non-tournament)
13.4k - top GTA5 stream

YouTube numbers would have similar proportions with overall lower viewership, but it's too convoluted to get numbers easily.

Right now, Fishtank is on a single-camera, temporary feed on a clip channel on YouTube, pulling in 5.2k viewers. Peak viewership was 57k viewers, I think last night, and again that's on his own website without any platform boost, algorithm, or real advertising.

So Fishtank would rate as a top non-tournament stream on any major platform, and if he was on one from the start I think he could actually rival the big tournaments for viewership.
