Let’s talk t-shirts.

I'm a new $30+ member so honestly my opinion matters little. That said, I think it would be cool if the $30+ members got shirts that were an exclusive color or variation of a shirt that all members had access to.

Not a 30+ patron, but it might be a good idea to have a "MR Patron" (see what I did there) stamp or something on their shirts, so everyone know they're better than the rest of us before ass plebeians. It's like having a first edition or first print.

Victor Perez

Yes please let us have tshirts!

As a $30 donater i wouldnt mind. If it means more money for you guys to keep decent overhead and do bigger and better things, I'm all for it

Same! Keep the Vanguard level as early access to shirts, or have variants for the Vanguard and give the option of the original or the variant.

Why not make new designs sell them for a limited time and keep the 30+ for the 30+ plus. I might be egoistic here but the shirts are one of the reasons why I pledge 30 a month and I like to think that we are somewhat "special" I don't really mind if you sell them but it would take some of the feeling away from me. What I'd love though would be shirts that actually say The modern rouge with whatever design, kind of like those you have on scamstuff.

As one of said $30 patrons, I wouldn't mind. (Especially because I was late to the Patreon party.) That said, I totally get why some other Vanguards would be hesitant, especially if you're a Vanguard for all three months of the fiscal quarter.

I'd buy 1-2 shirts even though I'm not a $30 backer.

Maybe make the ones other can buy a separate color than the patron ones. Satisfies both Patrons get to keep the exluctfity of a color, but other people can get the same design.

As a low value contributor, I would love to buy some merch, but I think part of the appeal of being a high contributor is the exclusive offers (but mostly helping you guys make the show).

I'd be okay with making them open to the public for a limited time

I think this would be a great way for those late to the $30 bosses to get the older designs and offer up variations. 1) replenish reserves 2) limited special event 3) draw in more potential supporters 4) profit

Zachary Ready

Same here!

As a $5 boss, I'd like to use some legal tender to acquire some shirts.

If I was a Vanguard boss I would resent an exclusive perk being made available to the masses, but I am not a Vanguard so ... gimmegimmegimme (I am a T-shirt-collecting fiend). As long as they're 100% cotton.

As a $5 boss, I'd buy some shirts.

As a $30 boss, I would like an exclusive variant available as an option for bosses, and a one month delay to the public at least.

I’d buy the hell out of them! I think like a weekend push to sell as many as you can would be an awesome way to get some fast cash!

As a nom-$30 boss, I'd love to buy some of the designs after an exclusive period. I think there could also be a way to do an exclusive version and non-exclusive version of the design (like a red shirt for patrons and black for sale or gold text for patrons and white for sale)

$30 levelIt is a t-shirt. If you can sell them and make money, that is good for the MR team. It would be nice if it wasn’t when receive ours

I am a $30 contributor and while I like the exclusivity of having the unique shirts I think doing a limited time run of them would be ok possibly something like we get the shirt included and last quarters shirts become available for a limited time that would give us ours while not denying our whole community. If you wanted to make something else special for the $30 ones possibly a purely limited to us shirt either sell or gift that maybe only one-two per year or something so you have fewer designs not being utilized.

I have enough t-shirts in my life. I would get a poster of a design.

Justin Newnum

I’d buy a bunch of the tees.

As a 5 dollar contributor, I would love to get some of those shirts, but I kind of feel like I’m cheating.

I wouldn't want to take anything away from $30 fans. I would say maybe slowly phase out that perk and go to limited time T-shirt drives. I think with your following you'd make much more money and the shirts would be available to everyone, it could be a talking point that'd help build the brand. I personally would like a T-Shirt with the head of TMZ Cobra smacking the box and going "THERE IS NO TDCS!". Also if you're on a cruise ship you should check out Bill Burr's bit from his 2018 special about sinking cruise ships if he were a dictator, its hilarious.

I'm not a $30 backer but I buy some shirts.
