How were streamers determined for the Twitch Chocobo campaign?

The following question/suggestion pertains to the latest twitch event: https://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodes...2acaa091904f1e

I know that a sub-campaign to get a rare mount is great and all, but how was the list of streamers selected for the event? They are all good people that were, but so many others missed out on the opportunity, and there was barely any BIPOC representation.

For future events, would it be possible for the FFXIV community to come forward to suggest people for events like these to the community team? I appreciate the 'higher view accounts' will get priority for the most part, but there are a lot of talented people that get overlooked and could honestly do with getting the recognition that they deserve.

Realistically what's going to happen is that people will drop 4 subs to who ever is currently streaming and never watch them again. FFXIV streams are just zzz compared to real games like WoW

Not a fan that Tequillashots....Arthars or Moodymoomba was not on that list. They all actively play FF14 and really promote this game. AnnieFuschia is pretty much gone once 9.1 drops over in WoW land but she is nice and will play FF14 as a side game.

To be completely honest I feel like people will only head over to Either ZeplaHQ OR whoever’s most popular/recognizable in their language category and drop the subs in, without thought. That was kinda what I was gonna do (although I love ZeplaHQ, I really have no patience for streams.)

I am subbed to Annie and have been since 2019 because I supported her after all the Method stuff went public. Probably going to go hook up one of the smaller streamers on that list. I wish Desperius streamed more because guaranteed he would have been on his list because his guides are god tier.

I am hope Square Enix is giving the hook up to their more Youtube focused streamers also.

I wish we could tip and subscribe to forum posters.

This tbh. Id much rather subscribe or tip forum posters than streamers sorry. Don’t find any of them entertaining.

Probably. As someone who doesn't watch streams and has no interest in starting, if I really wanted the mount I'd likely just pick one of those channels at random, do the thing, and leave forever again.

Not gonna lie.

This is the dumbest campaign I've seen so far.
But I know people are that desperate for a different color of mount.

I'd take encouraging players to gift subs to small streamers even if they don't watch it over "make these priviledged lucky few make even more money and get a mount".

This is exactly what i didn’t get. Why do they have it as like, the biggest streamers? Why not take this as an opportunity to help lesser known streamers? I mean i guess i already know the answer, money of course, but it’s just sad to see this is the campaign they choose of all things.
