Gordon was a fan after Arcadum was blown the fuck out for being a pervert. But before that, he had a substantial amount of people with generally large followings playing for him, who had their own connections within the Twitch Space.
MoonMoon, bald, fat, and old, did some GTA Roleplay and was in a group with Ster, who is good friends with Jerma. Octopimp, ex-homestuck and Voice Actor, was also a member of this group. AND, so was Bahroo.
Jerma did a large interactive stream called the Dollhouse, which collaborated with: Criken (Played for Arcadum in a group with Strippin and Arex,) Ludwig (Zoomer Nu-Jerma,) MiltonTPike1 (A GTA Roleplayer,) KitBoga (scam caller prankster,) and a few others.
Arcadum ran a game for GTA Roleplayers, who derailed his game so hard he threw the equivalent of a temper tantrum. This group included Spaceboy and PENTA.
During this time, he was running a game for Kiwo, another Twitch streamer who at the time was previously friends with Criken and did her own fair share of GTA Roleplay.
And the moment Gordon probably became a fan was when Arcadum was running
for a group of V-Tubers. Which included Nyanners.
Before this iteration of his campaign shit, he ran a game with Momo and Zentraya (Another V-Tuber) in it, Momo's a friend of Criken's. And who is currently doing GTA Roleplay in the server PENTA established with Kyle, who were essentially excommunicated from their previous server.
ScottJund is popular with the Dead By Daylight abuse victims, and was in the group with SummerSalt and Naomi.
And then you have the Callous Row project and EVERYONE involved with that.
The Gordoverse World Tree was planted in exceptionally tainted (but plentiful) soil.
