That's all.

　First of all, I decided to use a lottery system in order to reduce my workload. I thought about not accepting requests, but I did not want to ignore the voices of those who have a clear idea of what they want me to draw.

　Frankly speaking, the easiest and tastiest way is to raise the price again and forcefully reduce the quantity. However, even after raising the price to 25,000 yen (2.5 times the original price), I still received more applications than I could handle. I felt that raising the price further might distort the fundamental idea of the request I was operating, so I removed it from the list of options. In short, I put a stop to it before I got blinded by money.

　Therefore, I will withdraw the price increase, which no longer makes sense, and return to the original price.

　This is also to reduce the burden on applicants. This may sound a bit condescending, but I don't think the thickness of your wallet makes a difference in how much you want me to draw, so I have set the price so that as many people as possible will not feel that it is "too expensive". I believe that 10,000 yen, together with the "arbitrary number" that will be announced at Fanbox, will be a good hurdle to overcome.

　We will be exchanging money, but my basis of the project is the interaction with the fans. I hope that you will think that I am including a preferential treatment for supporters with this in mind.

I also reduced the element of luck as much as possible by selecting two out of the five winners by lottery and disqualifying the winners from participating in the next month's contest. I considered setting a ceiling, as in gacha-game, but decided against it because there was a risk that the number of participants would accumulate to an unmanageable level in the long run.

　The reason why I decided to use a lottery is simply because I felt that the first two applicants would be suffocated. Also, since I have confirmed that requests were sent from all over the world, I wanted to eliminate as much inequality as possible caused by the time difference.

　Also, the lottery process will be conducted live on Discord.

　The content will remain the same as before, but I will add a section to exclude parts difference. I am still refusing to do so at this time, but I apologize to those who cancelled because they did not understand what was going on.

　As for the parts difference, I remember that I mentioned several times that it was because I did not enjoy drawing them. To be honest, when I opened Fanbox, I was told by another artist (we are not in contact with each other now or back then) that "you can make money easily if you make the difference by taking off the clothes little by little" 😅I think that unless it is for commercial use, the feeling of rejection comes first 😅Of course, it is just his personal opinion, I think it is rare for people who artist to think that way. Well, I'm not trying to make money in the first place, so I don't think it's fun because of that words. I would like to add in an old woman's mind that it is not an easy job to draw parts differences.

　Therefore, I will continue to refuse to accept parts difference works. I think the other items that I refuse to accept are within the range of, "Yeah, I know. That's you".

This is the end of the explanation of the regular plan.

　I am trying to be as fair as possible, but this is still in the planning stage, so if you have a better idea or a revised plan, please let me know in the comments section. If you have any suggestions that are longer, please send them to me by e-mail. If there are no anomalies, this form will begin in January 2024.

　The Shut-up-and-take-my-money plan was established to eliminate the possibility of under-dogma by asking for too much fairness. I limit it to one person per month, just in case, but I have set a price that is basically impossible, so I don't think it will work during the course of my activities.

　I hope that I have explained the reasons for setting up each item, although I have not explained it in enough words. Again, if you have any comments or questions, please let me know in the comments section or by e-mail if it will take a long time.

　Thank you very much in advance.

Removal of preferential treatment for supporters

Short-term support itself is naturally not a problem, but we have removed it because it was confirmed that it could be perverted and reflected as a form of inducing support under the pretext of winning rates, etc.

Added content of PSD file delivery not possible

Added because it was confirmed that there was a requirement that did not fit with the content of not doing variation work, regardless of whether it was a winning or losing entry.
