Why did iiTzTimmy cut his one year subathon short?

The timer on the subathon finally reached zero this morning while the streamer was fast asleep. As iiTzTimmy was asleep when the timer hit zero, his mods changed the title of the stream to "FIN.//DAY 29/29" to indicate that newer subscriptions will not add any time to the subathon clock.

After Timmy took control of the stream, he addressed a claim common to almost every subathon on Twitch, which is that the subathon timer was bugged as subscriptions appeared to be coming in even when the timer hit zero.

Subathons are indefinite streams wherein every time a viewer signs up to be a paid subscriber to the streamer's channel, a certain amount of time is added to the clock. The stream has to go on until the timer hits zero.

As streamers tend to get harrowed by the extended working hours, some creators often bug their clocks to hit 0 earlier than they should so they can end the subathon, which leads to these questions being asked. This is the main reason this accusation is made at the end of every subathon.

In the end, the streamer decided to conduct a poll to decide what his viewers felt about ending or continuing the stream. The poll closed with an 8% gap between those who wanted to continue the subathon compared to those who didn't. Timmy went on to end the stream after displaying the poll's results.

Even though the one-year goal was not achieved, Timmy's Twitch handle is now the fourth highest subscribed channel on the platform. Some notable names that the streamer has overtaken to take this position include NICKMERCS, HasanAbi and Ibai.

The record for longest subathon is currently held by emilycc, who has been live for the past 191 days and counting.
