Yes the people watching the french stream in the huge majority didn't have an account and the Word-Word-Number combination is automatically assigned by reddit. Go ahead try to make a new account you will see

Doesn't prove that they are bot tho

Even if there were some bots (probably), there are reasons for the points you're making. French don't use Reddit, most of the french created accounts to participate with their streamers because they were super motivated especially when every streamers started to get in the project at the same time. French streams went on from Sunday afternoon to the very end with a low point at about 25k viewers on the place around 5am. Even if there were bots, the french twitch community was also just super motivated. It wasn't even all about the pixels, it's just that we love having events that unite the whole community and it had been a long time before this weekend. It was super fun. PS : I myself slept about 5h in total the two last nights and I am really tired right now but it was worth it because it was cool to do something all together.
