hey quick question on tokens as its what levels you up. After leaving cohh's stream on for 24hrs I only went up 40 tokens. Whats the delay for tokens to add to this website? Or am I just missing token's? I do like the idea of the level up system and using tokens to get on servers etc etc. It just seems as if the tokens arent corresponding to the amount of hours I've watched Cohh. Right now I would be at 250hrs watching cohh LIVE. but that seems very low since ive been watching him daily since b4 H1Z1. Dragon Age? Last few weeks of Arc Age is when i started maybe?

40 tokens sounds about right, though. You get 4 tokens per 15 minutes Cohh is online, plus you get 1 token for every hour he's offline. Assuming Cohh is online for 5-6 hours, that's 20-24 tokens. Plus 18-19 tokens for when he's offline. Which means you should get between 39 and 42 tokens in that 24 hour period.
You'll just have to be patient. Tokens, after all, are merely a reward for participating and watching the show. Don't get so hung up on them and enjoy the show. After all, a watched pot never boils.

I do have a question about this. I have been a member since 6/19/15 and my Twitch name is the same as my name on the website. I watch the stream Monday through Friday but not counting that, I think my tokens should be higher than they currently are. If you earn 1 token every 24 hours I have been watching since 6/19/15. Today is 10/22/15. That is 122 days * 24 hours = 2,928 tokens correct? My current token total is 987. This would mean that I should be level 2. I know tokens are a reward for watching but they do have benefits. Thank you for your responses.

[QUOTE="maj86, post: 29351, member: 51230"]I do have a question about this. I have been a member since 6/19/15 and my Twitch name is the same as my name on the website.

Firstly, the key is that you have to be logged into the stream's chat. So if you've ever closed your browser or not kept the stream window or at least the chat window open, then that'll reduce your count. Secondly, you gain 1 token for every hour the stream is offline, and one 1 token for every 15 minutes the stream is online.
Is your lifetime tokens 987? Or is it your working tokens? Either way, if you've kept the stream chat open for every single minute of those five days of the week since 6/19/15, the least amount of lifetime tokens you should have is around 2,900. However, you have to make sure you are logged into Twitch with the stream chat open for every bit of that time to get those. Also, if you've spent tokens on any advantage or token auction, those will be deducted from your working tokens.
Edit: Also, 2,928 tokens would be level 1. Your level increases once for every 2000 tokens you have. So you'd still not gain any advantage as the current system operates by giving advantages every 2 levels.

Got it. I knew you needed to be in the chat when the stream was live but didn't know that you needed to be in chat when the stream was offline to earn the offline tokens. Also forgot that the level system starts at 0. Thank you for your response.
