Freedom pledges to invest $100,000 for its smaller partners - Thoughts?

I just don't like that it is a raffle. That is what makes it feel shady. If they had an application process, screened the channels for some kind of quality/professionalism/character/consistency. It is deliberate snake oil pushing the idea that this is to benefit small channels when it's an advertisement and nothing more. The average Freedom partner has no idea that there are 60000+ channels to compete against. The products range between $60 and $120 retail. But even considering that they may be only paying half of retail on each for the exposure the manufacturer gets, you're looking at between a 1%-5% chance of being a part of the $100,000. Those are not good odds.

IMO they need to stuff this comment nonsense and get a real metric. There is no justification for making it a raffle with a SEO spam entry fee. Let channels improve their chances of being rewarded by not sucking.
Well, I found that they do have a sponsorship application: (I applied lol)

Freedom just announced that the criteria to be chosen was: <1000 views per day and you must interact with other partners (in the comments, on the forums, on your channel, etc.).
They also chose 2 new "winners" and they plan to do so every single day.
Thoughts? :)[DOUBLEPOST=1408481333,1408481269][/DOUBLEPOST]
I applied 8 hours ago, when do I get my free PC?
You applied for the GAMDIAS only sponsorship. Applications are pre-screened by Freedom, then submitted to GAMDIAS so that they can chose who will get sponsored. This may take several weeks.

Thanks for replying to my semi sarcastic post lol
 
I am just waiting for some network to offer $101,000 :p

I can just see the pitch now.

"We're pledging to invest $101,000 into features specifically for our smaller partners. We know that they already have mice and keyboards, so we decided what better way to help them out than by actually promoting their channels. Channels who spam our comments section begging will be disqualified."
