Awesome! Not sure I will have time to catch streams myself but I hope people join in and have fun.
I just don't understand why I would want to watch someone else play a game when I can just play myself? No offense to any streamers, but it just seems like a giant waste of time, time I could be using to improve my own skills/builds. I have long since reached the point though that I realize I will never be the best at anything, someone else will always be able to devote more time and/or money(same thing really) to any given pursuit. I have much more fun developing my own way rather than carbon copying someone else's work.

I am mostly like you, i rather play than watch. However, i understand why people watch. Sometimes i will watch boss fights just so i know what to expect and understand them better. Otherwise people watch:
* for entertainment value. Why do some people watch show x and some watch show y? Watching someone play is basically like watching an animated tv series.
* to learn. Some people are better at learning with visuals rather than reading instructions.
* when they cant play. At work on a break, in the car( hopefully not driving), waiting in a queue, etc.
* to pick up general tips and tricks in various situations or with various builds.
