Stop Killing Games:

The consumer movement to stop game publishers from intentionally destroying older games with kill switches.

The goal is to reach 1 million signatures in the EU so that the european parliament will respond to the initiative that then leads to regulation that requires end-of-life plans for games to stay playable.

Just hopped in to check and it looks like we're effectively DDoSing the Petition site by refreshing.

You can either join the watch party on the official discord, or use some other tracker website to see the numbers get updated to help alleviate the traffic so that more people can sign.

Maybe organising watch parties for them would be great to show how many people care about "Stop Killing Games"

The signing ups are skyrocketing and I may have found two culprits.

This all happened in the last 24h it seems and the SKG campaign has skyrocketed even more since then, check it out here:

Exciting to see the progress though I would have preferred to not have this "personality" be associated with the goal of the initiative...

Edit: updated Twitter link to privacy respecting frontend.

This is just for fun, but it looks like 1M will be reached if the last week is anything to go by (over 40K signatures in the last 12 hours so if anything it's speeding up).

So....Place you time and date below. Winner gets bragging rights!

edit: Don't forget to add a timezone to your guess
