Overwatch Streaming Rewards Guide & Troubleshooting - CLOSED

Hey there, is any possibility to add a function of stream timer on the website as for the streaming time could be a liitle bit hard to count and noticed, since some of my Chinese friends are telling me that on Bilibili when they stream the CNOC, people are getting a timer so that they may realize how long does it take for the skin.

Possible - yes. Do I expect the responsible Contenders website team to implement this - no. It took ages to implement a single dot to show if you are eligible for watch time and there are still issues every month, so I donā€™t expect them to actually add something as ā€˜complexā€™ (Iā€™m joking hereā€¦) as a timer to show the time watched.

Feels like the only way to get the skins is to write down every stream you watched and overcompensate a LOT do have a chance to get things done because the tech team doesnā€™t get things done.
Iā€™m basically sure that I canā€™t count the first stream for me, started it and went to bed, as it started at 3 AM for me in Europe. Given the number of tech issues I read about here I canā€™t imagine that it worked for me. Still want to have them run, as I donā€™t trust the tech team to get things working for the start of the second season later in Juneā€¦

Still missing Brig and Mercy. Its getting frustrating.
Already contacted support and reported it in the bug report forum and here.

How come there are no opportunities at the start of this month to earn the baptiste and doomfist contenders skins? Previous months had a few days to be able to earn the previous months skins, even though those months had matches almost every day of the month. However for May, there were only half as many matches or less, on top of people experiencing issues with getting the skins despite watching the correct amount of time. Yet in the beginning of June there is nothing for getting the baptiste and doomfist skins early if you missed them in May.

This has only happened once, and it was for the April rewards for the first matches in May because the matches were rescheduled from April 29/30 to May 3/4, respectively. They were never meant to be May matches that would count toward May rewards.

Logged in with green dot but when I click on the drop down menu on my name I still get:

%USER_BATTLETAG% etc.

Anyone having this happen as well?

Itā€™s been that way for a month or so, seems to just be a visual bug.

Thank you for the update Wyoming! Hope youā€™re feeling better and get some rest bud!

Ive watched at least 5 hours with the green dot and no Sombra skin. :confused:

watched 5 hours , nothing

I watched about 5 hours of the contenders stream and havenā€™t received Sombraā€™s skins

watch 7-8 hours isnā€™t have rewards

The VODs barely add up to 6 hours, including the intermissions that likely donā€™t count toward viewership. Itā€™s impossible to have watched more than 7 hours by this point.

Lol, they say they have isolated and fixed the problem, yet when I clear my cookies and cache and login, the issue still persists, as I still see %USER_BATTLETAG%, %USER_BATTLETAG_CODE% and %USER_EMAIL%. :rofl: :joy:

That is still happening, but that is not affecting earning rewards. Again this is a separate issue with certain Javascript features and affecting multiple Blizzard websites. You are signed in if you see it.

The problems yesterday was that users couldnā€™t even sign into Contenders, but that is now resolved.
