Stop Killing Games is a 2024 consumer movement and initiative started by Ross Scott with the goal of preserving video games after they are taken offline. The initiative was started after the shutdown of The Crew, a racing game that required a constant internet connection despite being mostly single-player. The initiative quickly gathered popularity, being covered by various YouTubers and news outlets. The movement has launched multiple government petitions.

OK just googled. (For anyone else also wondering)

Incredible. Can't believe I'm only finding this now

 

Stop Clock in Test Cricket: I think giving the bowling team a lil time to discuss plans is a good thing, you get better cricket out of it. But time is an issue, so how do you cut it? Easy, bowl 2 overs from each end. Inspiration from the hundred. The time you're cutting this way is from the end change and field change (plus ads which is why it hasn't happened) instead of strategizing and players taking a sip of water.

Saliva rule: What a bullshit in between move, its not legal to do but if you do it, meh, we dont care. Although OK listening to their reasoning it's a reasonable rule. I just prefer if we remove saliva and sweat and offer some sort of saline solution or smth which the umpire holds and the players can use, the only substance allowed to touch the ball.

DRS protocol: I like it. Always wanted it.

Combined reviews: I preferred the older method. I'm very pro bowling if you can't tell lol.

Fairness of catch: Fixes a problem that needed fixing. Good decision.

Deliberate short run: I like it.

Subs (in domestic cricket, possibly): Finally (slippery slope though). I prefer proper subs to injury subs.
