you must have made a purchase on Steam between 12:00am GMT on Nov 14, 2021 and 11:59 pm GMT on Nov 14, 2022, from one of the Giveaway Countries;
Thought this one was gonna trip me up since I do a lot of purchases from Humble Bundle and other stores. Decided to check my purchase history and I see I made a LOT more purchases on Steam directly than I realized. >_>

according to the Geoff Keighley video you have to also be watching the stream on Steam

It doesn't appear to be explicitly mentioned in the rules but I would watch it on Steam just to be sure.

It's only per minute of live broadcast which means the prerecorded pre show shit probably doesn't count.

But still.

This is what it says in the rules:

You enter the promotion by registering for the Giveaway on the registration page (https://store.steampowered.com/sale/thegameawardssteamdeckdrop2022) and then watching the Giveaway Broadcast during the Giveaway Period while logged into your registered Steam Account. In order to be eligible to win a prize using this method of entry:

It does not explicitly state you have to watch the broadcast on steam's website specifically, but the Geoff Keighley video does.

It does though. What I quoted is from where you register at

https://store.steampowered.com/sale/thegameawardssteamdeckdrop2022

I couldn't see it in the rules though at a quick glance, so not the best explained unless I just missed it.

A rather small pool. Essentially anyone who joined just for the last autumn sale can't enter. Anyone who didn't buy anything over the last year can't enter. Anyone who doesn't live in one of the eligible countries can't enter. That cuts out millions of contestants. Not to mention most people won't bother watching it at all. I would be very surprised if more than 2 million people were watching it on Steam. The odds of winning aren't great but they're good enough to make it worth.

Even if half a million were eligible, the odds of winning 150 units would still be in the several thousands. It doesn't really change much.
