Oh. Fantastic.

A load of frothing racists took the ability to participate in the EU away from me about a decade ago.

You should thank Nigel Farange, and his supporters. He said Brexit will be full of sunshine and rainbow and Brits believed him lol

Looking at the form, EU citizens living abroad apparently cannot sign either.

We can, I just did it from Switzerland.

First you have to chose your nationality, then another form appear with your address where you can chose "other" for your residence country.

They can. As long as you are EU citizen you're eligible - no matter where you are currently

Signatures collection started 5 days ago and already 1/8 of them have been collected. That's impressive.

Looks like Finland is gonna be the first for the required seven countries to reach the threshold, though Sweden is not far behind.

We should be spamming this in twitch chat and discourse. Just join the channels of the top streamers and spam "Stop Killing Games: Tell the EU to do something!", "Only EU citizens can Stop Killing Games by signing the petition", "EU citizens can't even Stop Killing Games KEKW", or whatever else people come up with. I don't use either, but maybe somebody else does.

Bring it up in the appropriate channels or when it's applicable during a stream/conversation, but don't spam it. That's just going to annoy people.

You reached the end

Petition to the EU to stop killing games is at 125k signatures [1 million, or 1000k, required: already 1.25/10 is done, despite poor coverage from youtube community] | Spyke
