Looks like there are problems with drops on todays stream. I have been on since the start and have no drops.
Many others are also reporting the same issue.
In chat the statement is that it is possible to get more than 1 Epic. However you have to get a regular before you can get an Epic.
"before you ask: Yes, mobile works. Drops are NA only, EU already had these drops. Yes, you can get more than 1 epic drop, you get a chance at an epic every 60 minutes of watch time. You must earn 1 regular drop before an epic is possible. If you don't get the guaranteed regular drops after 60 minutes, unlink your account on Twitch and on World of Tanks account management and then relink. Also saying Drop or Drops will get you timed out."
Nothing to indicate if it is possible to get more than 1 set of each of the 3 regular rewards. Thereby making it impossbile to get a second Epic.
That's how you read it.
The way I read it:
You have to get a regular drop
From that point on you can get multiple Epic drops if you are 'lucky'.
But again I've always found them to be stingy on drops in previous events and so I doubt many people if any will get 2 epic drops. We're talking about 8 hours total streaming time and you have to watch for at least 60 minutes before you even get a chance at an epic which I assume means you can't get an epic in the first hour of each stream.
So 8 total hours of streaming time. Even in an ideal scenario for a viewer:
60 minutes on Thursday
60 minutes on Friday
180 minutes on Saturday
You have 5 hours for the chance of an epic drop assuming you got a regular drop in that first hour on the first day. But what if you need a regular drop on each stream? Odds get worse especially if you don't get that regular drop in the first 60 minutes. I doubt this is the case given previous 'drops' events seemed to manage rewarding you once regardless of which streams you watched, how much you watched, etc... but who knows for sure.
I'd rather a partnership with the streamers involved to give them a cut of proceeds so it's not based on RNG... RNG that had people watching 24+ hours of streams to get a single garage slot back a few months ago.
