Discovery Reels are clip feeds where creators submit clips and viewers vote for favorites. Go to Creator Discovery.
- Creators submit clips into a reel.
- Viewers vote for their favorite clips.
- Top clips gain more visibility across the reel experience.
Creators can apply through the creator flow on FameForecast. Approved submissions are added to the relevant reel.
We apply vote validation controls, duplicate filtering, and session checks to reduce spam and abuse so rankings reflect real fan votes.
- Live Showcases: Scheduled live events with host streams and a raid winner.
- Discovery Reels: Ongoing clip voting feeds where fan votes drive ranking and visibility.
FameForecast Showcases are live audition events where rising streamers are featured on an established Partner's stream. Go to Creator Discovery.
A Showcase is a 20-40 minute live segment where 4-8 rising streamers audition to an established Partner's audience.
The Format (approximately 5 minutes per creator):
- The Introduction: The Host introduces you to their audience-not by what game you play, but by WHO YOU ARE as a creator. Your origin story, fun facts, vibe, personality archetype, and custom tags.
- The Clip: Your best clip plays for the audience to see your content in action.
- The Vote: Viewers vote for their favorite. Vote counts are tracked live and publicly visible during the showcase.
The Winner: At the end of the showcase, the creator with the most votes from the Host's audience receives the Live Raid-the Host's full audience is transferred to the winner's channel.
This is discovery based on personality and talent, not just what game you play.
There are two ways to participate in a Showcase:
1. Priority Placement (Paid Bidding):
- Place a custom bid to secure a slot in the showcase
- The highest bidders are auto-selected for available slots
- The Host has veto power and can decline any applicant
- Once the Host confirms your selection, you'll receive a payment request
- Payment is flexible: PayPal, Stripe, or crypto accepted
2. Discovery Pool (Free):
- Join our general pool at no cost
- If a Host manually scouts you or we have unfilled slots, you may be invited to participate for free
Important: Your bid secures your slot, but has ZERO impact on winning the vote. That's 100% determined by the audience.
Payment Timing:
- Priority Placement (Paid): You submit your bid when applying. Payment is ONLY processed after the Host confirms your selection. You'll receive a payment request via PayPal (or your preferred method including crypto) once selected.
- Discovery Pool (Free): No payment required. If invited to participate, it's completely free.
Refund Policy:
- Full refund if cancelled: If the showcase is cancelled by the Host or FameForecast for any reason, you receive a full refund.
- No refund for losing: Once the showcase goes live, payment is non-refundable. You paid for guaranteed exposure to the audience-winning the raid is merit-based and determined by votes.
Your Responsibilities:
- Ensure you are LIVE during the scheduled showcase time
- If you win the vote but are offline, the runner-up receives the raid
- You still keep the showcase exposure, but forfeit the raid prize
Absolutely not. FameForecast is a Paid Media Placement platform with merit-based outcomes.
How It Works:
- Paid Entry: Your bid secures a guaranteed slot in the showcase (like buying an ad placement).
- Merit-Based Voting: Once the showcase starts, your wallet is closed. A creator who bid $500 has the exact same chance of winning as a creator who bid $5-it's 100% determined by audience votes.
The audience does not know how much you bid. They vote purely on the quality of your content and personality. You cannot buy votes. You cannot buy the raid. You can only buy the opportunity to be seen.
Why Bidding Exists: The current bid system helps us discover what creators value this opportunity at. Your bid amount secures your showcase slot but has ZERO impact on the vote outcome. We're transitioning to transparent fixed pricing once we validate the right price point.
We use verified Host Audience voting to ensure winners are chosen by the people actually watching the showcase, not by creators bringing their own armies.
How It Works:
- Only votes from viewers watching the Host's stream count toward the raid winner
- We track votes through the Host's unique showcase link
- Vote counts are displayed publicly in real-time during the showcase
- Duplicate votes are filtered automatically
Transparency:
- Creators can view live vote tallies during and after the showcase
- Results are based purely on verified Host audience votes
- The system is designed to prevent brigading while maintaining fairness
To win the Raid, you must win the votes from the Host's actual audience. This ensures you win because the Host's viewers genuinely liked you, not because you mobilized your own community.
To win the Raid: YES.
If you win the audience vote but are offline, the Host will Raid the runner-up. You
cannot receive a raid if you aren't streaming.
To just be showcased: No.
If you just want exposure, we can play your clip while you are offline, but you forfeit
the prize (the Raid).
We get it. Going from 20 viewers to 200+ instantly can be overwhelming.
If you want the exposure of the Showcase but are nervous about the pressure of a live Raid, you can "Opt-Out" of the Raid. Just let us know via email.
