This is your somewhat regularly scheduled Stop Killing Games update.

Stop Killing Games is an European Citizens Initiative aiming to keep games playable even after their developers and publishers have stopped supporting it.

Germany has hit the threshold sometime yesterday evening. France has also started to catch up. They are still below 50% but there growth over the last couple of days has been the biggest. Netherlands and Denmark are still in the low 90s.

The milestone comes on the eve of this years Gamescom in Cologne, Germany which is set to kick off today. SKG is not going to have an official presence there. (I’ve checked with the organisers) But if you are attending and want to help spread the word I’m happy to share official marketing material, either in the form of flyers or the files for flyers, so you can print your own. They come in both German and English. If you want some, send me a DM.

    This is so dumb. Not the petition itself, but the way you’re going about it.

    You actively antagonise people who are annoyed to hell and back at having to go look for the reason behind the petition. You even had one guy wondering if it was about banning violent games.

    All because you’re too lazy to put it in the description. Way to shoot your petition in the foot. One line about “keeping games playable” without an explanation of the root cause won’t make people join your petition 🙄🙄🙄.

    Not only that, but this could now be related to actual spam given how often you’re reposting it. E#: just looked, you made eight posts in two weeks. What in the world are you expecting to change by repeating the same thing over and over?

    Instead of getting the impact you were going for (rightfully, since you explained jack shit), you’re now spamming to get quantity over quality. Idiotic.

    Addition of a few sources to show you how much you fucked up in your presentation of the petition:

            Dumb and lazy audiences are EXACTLY why the main point of every article that details how to write a successful petition say that the GOAL should be the first thing in focus.

      8 posts in 2 weeks? That’s nothing 🤣 People here make 8 posts in a day.

      Also what’s up with all the aggression? Did you wake up on the wrong side of the bed? Stub your toe against something?
