twitch drops not dropping after watching ALL DAY, any advice?

[Murphy's Lawyer]

I don't get any of these twitch drops youre supposed to get for watching any partner stream for 60mins or more.

i leave twitch up on a partner all day, or switch after 3 hours to a different one, nothing.

yes my account is linked. I got all the Prime with Prime rewards, but not the drops for watching a partner. ive never gotten one, never tried until a few weekends ago with the landing ship drops. that week i got zero after having twitch open all ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ weekend on many different partners for many different hours.

last week i unlinked and relinked my account, still zero drops after many more than 60 minutes watched on several different partners.

can anyone help me understand why im getting screwed.

my account is linked. i have unlinked and relinked. no drops. i got prime with prime but never a drop for watching WF streams, but i have in other games.

what else? do i need to be active in chat? does it need to be my active window? i just leave it running when i play or when i go to work. sometimes its active window sometiems not. sometiems i chat randomly but not much.

no matter what i do, even if im actually watching, twitch will make my icon go from green to yellow if i dont touch anything for 5 mins. does that matter? No im not "invisible" on twitch, it just changes to yellow from green unless i click or chat all the time, but i dont think that matters. people say they leave it running while they play.

my account is linked. ihave unlinked and relinked. got prime with prime, never got a drop from watching WF streams, but i have in other games.

any other ideas or advice or personal experience troubleshooting this?

You don't need to write an essay about it, if you just google, you'll see that it depends on the day you're watching.
On Friday-Saturday, You'll get the Starchild Diadem
On Sunday-Monday, you'll get the Teshin statue.
And from Monday to Friday, you'll get the Cherry tree Glyph or a Forma.

That was how it was originally, except it didn't work for 90% of people who just got the icon. Now it's done by days.

ofc no one who bothers to respond has anything important to say and just assumes im misunderstanding something, even after reading the entire essay i wrote.

i understand completely how they are supposed to work, they are in fact, not working for me.

theres a technical problem that im not aware of that im seeking help for.

i know how a calendar works, ive googled the ♥♥♥♥ out of this question and its just threads like this with people who never get answers, except smartass no-help responses from kids saying it must be a user error.

ive gotten twitch drops on other games easy, i know how to use twitch and get drops. i know how to google.

no one responded to my actual questions and just assumed im missing something obvious. dont respond with smart ass ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. does twitch have an afk timer? do i have to be active in chat?

every other game, ive let this ♥♥♥♥ run in the background and i get my drops. games like SMITE and PALADINS.

ive left this ♥♥♥♥ on all weekend, and ive gotten nothing. You tell me smart ass, doesnt all weekend count as 60 minutes during the time frame?

Are you certain you’re linked to the right platform? It’s possible that it linked to your account, but the wrong platform.

You actually have to watch the partner play warframe. Whom did you try to watch? Usually they stream titles mention if there's twitch drops. Did you make sure of that?

You only mentioned to watch a partner but not if they were actually streaming warframe or nah.

Also need to make sure your twitch account isn't marked as away or inactive. This means having the video playing, not muted, and occasionally having activity in chat.

Weird, I always just played Warframe and left the Twitch muted because why would I want to watch someone play when I can be Fissure and Cetus farming?

Because of a recent change in twitch when you mute a stream it counts as it being not watched for item drops

I think the yellow 'away' status doesn't affect much, neither does chat activity bc I never, ever, interact in chats. Watched someone play earlier and played other videogames, I have two screens so I could actually watch the stream and it would occasionally set me as "away" but I still got the drop after an hour and a bit.
But yes, better safe than sorry to sometimes interact with the stream window (may it be via chat, or just changing the audio level)

1. Throw out everything previously posted by others.

2. Your Twitch stauts means nothing. I always leave it running in the background, as I can't be glued to my computer screen 24/7. As long as you don't "mute" the stream, you're fine.

3. Make sure the accounts you're linked are the ones you want (PC, PS, Xbox).

4. Who's stream were you watching? There's the Twitch Directory https://www.twitch.tv/directory/game/Warframe -and- the WP listing https://www.warframe.com/community/partners#partnerIndex

5. Ready to get your mind blown? I was having trouble too, until someone responded to my tweet. Seems the streamer must have "Twitch Drops Active" on their account. It's not an auto thing, as a stream can opt out. It's best to seek out WP (Warframe Partner) streams as you will know they're getting the drops for their viewers.

6. Wish I knew you were having problems with the ship skin drops, too. At this point, and if you're still havin g problems, I would make a ticket at Warframe Support through the main website.

I've watched tons of those dumb videos and all of them say there's twitch drops on the game forum but I NEVER got any drops so far, what gives?
