Serious question for Live YouTube broadcasters. Have any of you experienced a super inconsistent view count on your livestreams? I had a stream that went from having near 2k views down to just 600. Any insight as to why this could happen?

Brisbane is a neat place. In my frightfully short 24 hours there I'm afraid I couldn't see much, but would love to go back. See you again, Brisbane.
