I know these rarely have any sway with our governments and there is more important things in the world atm, but it's getting close to the end now and it's worth a reminder.

Man I love the optimism but it’s hours away and the organizers are doing interviews saying they’re done. It’s back to the drawing board.

Man I hate the pessimism. It's a month away and one organizer is saying he's done if this fails.

I thought i read it was less than 24hrs from the deadline. In that case sure spread away. Not feeling great about it but hey still a chance then. My bad

Edit: we’re both wrong. EU deadline is July 3rd, which is the main one. UK one is doing even worse, that has less than 3 weeks.

You switched the dates. EU deadline is july 31st, and got a massive influx of signatures over the last two days.

That makes a twofold deadline for the Stop Killing Games initiative. Or, at least, one headed up by Scott: The UK petition, which ends July 14, and the EU Citizens' Initiative, which ends July 3.

I’m only showing this because that’s what I was going off of. The petitions themselves have different dates. You are likely correct, but just felt it behooved me to at least show where I got those dates from

That is an unfortunate typo (3 vs 31). For reference, the official page of the EU initiative lists 31st july, the UK petition page lists 14th july.
