Subathon subcount tracking: What gets tracked? | Neuro-sama Headquarters | Page 1

Hi,
I built https://neuro.appstun.net/subathon/ to show the current subathon with automatic sub counting.
The problem is that the subcount on my page always differs from the subcount on stream. I'm not sure what Vedal tracks for his counter and in what channels/platforms.

I currently track normal subs, re-subs, subgifts & anonymous subgifts, and only on the main channel (vedal987).

Does anyone have more information which sub types or other gift thingies or other channels/platforms are tracked in the subcount on stream?

Look at the current Neuro-sama subathon details!

#

not the jp twitch channel too?

#

now added bilibili sub (guard) tracking
every guard is +1 on the subcount (same as the other 4)

AwooHmm it still gets behind the streams subcount

OhISee i searched up the prices for the levels and holy - that's why you did it like that
its now updated. thanks for the info A_ShibaHeart

do you do the same with twitch sub tiers? like t1 = 1; t2 = 2 & t3 = 3 subs

humble flicker Dec 22, 2025, 1:20 PM

#

T3 would be 5 in that case no? Because of price being 5x t1 sub

#

I did a T3 sub during sleeping hours and it added 100 seconds

tranquil kettle Dec 22, 2025, 7:09 PM

#

OhISee

#

then t2 is the middle, so 3 subs each

foggy scroll Dec 23, 2025, 6:03 AM

#

higher twitch tier subs add more time but don't count as more than one sub

#

it's a little inconsistent I made that system first

I think I did something wrong neurOMEGALUL

#

the subcount on stream is 31k ehehe

I noticed the sub count on the site is still a bit higher than on stream and the startTimestamp in your API is "Friday, 19 December 2025 18:52:43 GMT+00:00" but note that subs didn't start getting counted on stream until after the 30 minute intro and music video which was 34:21 after stream start

AwooHmm yea i guess - idk why but i use the stream start time & the end time when the counter hits 0. i did the last subathon the same way

i guess this is now a discussion

nimble ingot Dec 23, 2025, 11:14 PM

Here's every time the seconds per sub changed during the hype train

40k: +18s
50k: +12s
60k: +8s
80k: +6s
100k: +5s
120k: +3s
140k: +2s

thats interesting OhISee - but not needing it (only counting subs, not time)

tranquil kettle Dec 24, 2025, 10:22 PM

#

the subcounts are currently 497 subs apart

this is the code that adds the subs to the subcount(s)

// Subscribe to an event users can trigger on Twitch
TwitchIrc.on("USERNOTICE", (msg) => {
  // check internal stuff if there is a stream, active subathon and correct streamer
  if (activeSubathons.size === 0 || !Twitchdata.isLive() || msg.channelName.toLowerCase() !== streamerNameLower) return;

  let subsTotal = 0;
  // Check what type the event is
  if (msg.isSubgift() || msg.isAnonSubgift() || msg.isResub() || msg.isSub()) subsTotal = 1;

  // Add the subs to the subcount in every active subathon entry
  if (subsTotal > 0) for (const sub of activeSubathons.values()) sub.subcount += subsTotal;
});

// Subcribe to the guard (sub) buy event
BilibiliWs.on("GUARD_BUY", (msg) => {
  // check internal stuff if there is a stream & active subathon (streamer/roomid (1852504554) get set on init, so no need to check)
  if (activeSubathons.size === 0 || !Twitchdata.isLive()) return;
  
  // Set the subs by guard level  
  let lvlSubs = 3;
  if (msg.data.data.guard_level == 2) lvlSubs = 50;
  else if (msg.data.data.guard_level == 1) lvlSubs = 500; // Updated - lvl 1 = highest

  // Calculated total subs
  let subsTotal = msg.data.data.num * lvlSubs;

  // Add the subs to the subcount in every active subathon entry
  if (subsTotal > 0) for (const sub of activeSubathons.values()) sub.subcount += subsTotal;
});
