Plenty of Speedkart videos going around, and maybe the bot videos.

You can't blame the Yogscast for being successful.
YogVentures is being made by an Indie developer and has every right to be entered onto Steam Greenlight.
If the large fanbase of the Yogscast decide to upvote it, then that is perfectly fine and acceptable.

You can't say that only people who weren't fans can vote.
It's the exact same thing that Badspot has done in including a link to Greenlight in Blockland and the website.
It just so happens that the Yogscast has a larger fan base than Blockland does.

If Blockland were in the same spot as YogVentures and we had a large following and got ourselves greenlit, you wouldn't be complaining.
Other communities might be, but we wouldn't.

But if we were in their spot we wouldn't have to complain because we would have a larger following already.

That's exactly my point.
The only reason anyone here is complaining about YogVentures being greenlit is because they already have a large following.
They've not done anything illegal or against the rules of Greenlight to earn those.

The only reason anyone would complain about them is due to jealousy.
We can't just say that games with big followings aren't allowed in to Greenlight. That's entirely unfair.
A big following doesn't guarantee the service/safety of using Steam to sell your games.
So it's perfectly fair for Indie games with big followings to apply.

And really, why wouldn't Steam accept them?
If the game already has a big following then putting it on Steam is going to make Steam a large sum of money.
The whole point of getting games to be voted in, and having games with the most votes accepted is because the more votes you have, the more potential buyers Steam will have.
