There are no ad revenue gains. You don't generate ad revenue by drawing a few dozen P99ers to your Twitch stream.
Look, if you're jumping into a giveaway thread to point out to people that the way someone is conducting their giveaway isn't the most sincere, most selfless, most transparent possible way to do things, you are an asshole. Self-aggrandizement and internet popularity is beside the point - it's a giveaway. Only the most insufferable, pedantic, insecure complainers will point out that a nice gesture is slightly less of a nice gesture because of x or y. It's still a nice gesture. No one with any sense of reality gives a shit about how many followers he has on Twitch. It does not matter. Coming in here and saying Speedi's giveaway "feels less sincere" because he's hosting it on Twitch and gains Twitch followers from doing it is poorly masked jealousy masquerading as virtue.
