Changes Incoming for 2016!
Added 2015-12-19 07:09:12 +0000 UTCOver the next few weeks you will start to see some changes to things around my Patreon campaign here, so do not be alarmed! Many of these updates are the direct results of information gathered from the Patron survey you may have recently taken. Yay! Fan input!
The first change you may notice is an update to the Milestones on the page. I have consolidated and simplified the goals that have already been reached for easier readability. Most obviously, I have created a NEW milestone goal to unlock the oft-requested Farlander Patron Minecraft Server! I'm still working out the details, many of which I will be consulting you, my Patrons, for ideas. I'm hoping that, with the high caliber of Farlander I've seen around these parts, we can create a vanilla survival server with minimal restrictions or moderation. Naturally, this means there will have to be a limit on slots available and the required pledge to get whitelisted will have to reflect that. I'm still thinking of good ways to do this, but I'll be sure to give advanced notice so that people can adjust their pledges before the end of the month if need be so they can be included.
Speaking of which, the next set of changes will be to the Pledge Tiers. Obviously, the big change will be to create or add-on the reward of Patron Server access (when that gets unlocked). Additionally, an overall simplification of rewards and consolidation of tiers is something that makes it easier on you Patrons to know exactly what you are getting, and much easier on me to keep track of everything. Please note: When reward tiers are edited or removed, Patreon does not auto-update your account's choice! I'll give you notice, of course, but it may be necessary to re-select a reward tier even if you haven't changed your pledge amount. I'll try to make it so that is not a problem for the majority of you, but I just wanted to give a heads-up just in case.
That's about that for now. Boy, it sure does seem a lot more daunting now that I've written everything down. YEEESH! Thanks again for all of your continued support! As I said in the interview with John Green, I am absolutely certain that I wouldn't have been able to continue doing this job I love full-time if it wasn't for the generous support of fans exactly like you here on Patreon. You have no idea how much I appreciate it!
INDEED!
