Changes coming to my Patreon

Hey everyone!

Over the past few weeks I've been looking over my Patreon page. I'm always looking to see what's most beneficial for you (in terms of value brought on this page), and what's worth it for me to do as a full-time creator. The changes I've listed below are for the benefit of giving you the best value for your patronage, as well as keeping the lights running in the office here in Boston.

Changes to The Game Club

The Game Club was designed as a way for Patreon supporters to play games with me in a more controlled, moderated setting. Every Friday before I livestream at 5 PM EST, I offered a private Fortnite play session with other members via Discord. Due to an overwhelming lack of interest from my supporters, this is a service I'm no longer offering, effective immediately. It was a situation where only 2 out of the 75+ patrons were in attendance on any given week. In order to provide the best value for my patrons, I'm deciding to focus that energy elsewhere.

The $5 tier will still be used to provide the Minecraft Realm Code, and other sporadic gaming sessions via the Discord server. BUT... there's a new benefit coming to that $5 tier...

Introducing The Stickah Club

By supporting at the $5 tier, you'll now be part of "The Stickah Club", an exclusive club that nets you an awesome sticker MONTHLY from Bricks 'O' Brian! For every month you support me, you'll receive a sticker in the mail that pertains to the world of B'O'B in some way. They're gonna be surprises, but I promise, they're spicy. If you're a fan of mine, you'll appreciate what stickers I'll be sending you. Best part? It starts THIS MONTH! So anyone whose already on the $5 tier or higher will receive the sticker for August! You'll still keep your Game Club member title in Discord, and retain the perks there. Now you'll be getting a sticker every month too! :)

For my Brick Buddies and Producer Club members, you'll be receiving an EXTRA spicy sticker exclusive to the $10 tier or higher. I have a few other surprise stickers in mind as the months go on... So if you want the COMPLETE sticker collection, the Brick Buddy tier is where its at!

Changes to the Name in Credits Benefit & Tier.

In my time of being Bricks 'O' Brian, I've produced over 1,500 playthrough videos. That's kind of a lot... and y'all know I work hard every day to provide the best content I can. The names in credits have appeared in almost all of those videos, and I want to show extra appreciation for those that support me here on Patreon. 

That being said, the Names in Credits perk will be moving up to a new $3 tier starting August 15th. This tier will also have the Discord benefit added to it to provide a bit more incentive if you're looking to make the jump. The $1 tier will now become a general tip jar for those who just want to contribute on a monthly basis in some way.

I know it stinks.. When I receive the payment from Patreon, I only see about 78 cents of every dollar level Patron, and as much as I appreciate all the support on any level, I have to combat the rising costs of literally everything and do what's best to keep this ship afloat. That's why I figure the Discord benefit and Stickah Club were good ways to add more value to y'all over here on Patreon.

All of these changes take effect August 15th unless otherwise stated.

I hope you understand these changes and find them positive overall! Thank you for being part of my monthly support system. I know I'll keep bringing the hotness where I can, so long as you keep up the support in any way you can! :)
