Sure, getting hit with a malus that has a 1 in 200,000 chance of occurring might seem like 'bad luck' for example, but another way of describing it could be to say that it is an inevitability. It's well known that given a stable set of conditions for infinity, anything that could possibly happen in that set of conditions, will eventually happen.
The longer you stream, the more likely it is you'll be raided, and the more unique viewers (the average watch time of which will naturally be very low) you will have. All it takes is 1 good raid to help boost a stream, and all it takes is a few of the several dozen viewers you draw in to decide they actually want to stay and watch for over the average. That's how you might find new regulars as well who aren't your friends.
Any one of those things could be described as luck, for example, it's 'luck' to get several dozen viewers, it's 'luck' to get a viewer who happens to find something they like in your stream that retains them, and yet it's still true that there are factors, variables, in control of the streamer that can influence the bias of the rolls. Conversely, any one of those things can simply be described as a consequence of streaming often, and streaming longer, rather than plain luck.
Face it, Knight Chase got right, what so many /asp/ies and /wvt/chuubas and indie streamers get wrong day after day. The funniest part is nobody had to tell him to stream as long as possible (5 hours) and as often as possible, he was just smart enough to do it. Sure it exists as advice to stream for several hours if you can, but it's rarely mentioned, and when I've mentioned that 16 hour minimums are ideal in the past the first time here in /asp/ I'm pretty sure I got several negative responses. Only Knight Chase does anything right in this circle and it seems mostly intuition, introspection and meditation.
In a numbers game, you don't just win by addition,
you also win by subtraction,
that's the streaming game.
You are fighting entropy of the universe,
good luck.
