I hope this will do...
Added 2021-03-10 22:23:03 +0000 UTCI feel bad about forgetting to pause the March billing cycle, so I thought I'd try to come up with some sort of compensation for those affected. At first I thought I'd just hold the normal content polls this month as a one time thing before returning to doing them monthly. However, the problem with doing that is that I don't have nearly enough patrons with voting power to justify adding all that extra work to my already swamped schedule. Only a few of my current patrons are eligible to participate in polls, so holding polls this month would basically mean a month of near-free work for me. I couldn't possibly handle that, and from a monetary standpoint it doesn't make any sense to do.
Here's what I'll do instead:
- As a compensation for all patrons, I will post some bonus stuff that I wouldn't necessarily post normally. This includes word counts for each of my current projects, a list showing the order of release for said projects as well as very rough(!) release dates, and last but not least, I will reveal some projects that I have planned for the future. I might also show some random side-projects that relate to my work as a whole in some way.
- As a compensation for patrons with voting power, you will all get twice your normal amount of votes for the next set of content polls. If you cancel your pledge before that takes place, I will message you so that you can tell me personally what you want to vote for (patrons in the Enhanced Tier will of course also be showed my idea list).
I hope this is fine with you guys. Again, I apologize for the inconvenience. Maybe this isn't even a big deal to you, but it's a matter of principle for me. I need to handle things better when it comes to other people's money.
