Mechanic for February

First, want to apology for having many of these posts about how to handle my Patreon. As I've said before, I want the content to be worth it + offer nice things on the platform, But also need to find the right balance of "What I'm offering is relatively fair and I'm not killing myself in the process"

I think about the previous post, I think that taking ideas (even if they are flat color) every month, might be a bit of a stretch, not counting trying to have the comic of the month (minimum 1 page, ideal 2 pages per month) and the exclusive of the month (plus all the managing of making polls for ideas)

Not counting that I also need to take a day or so to schedule all the art on other platforms like deviantArt and twitter.

All in all, what I mean is I am likely to keep doing few test runs here and there to see what I feel comfortable with.

I'll like to list few possible options We can try, the idea is next couple of months we run with this to see how things works:

Option A: Drop sketchorama ----------------

• The sketchorama mechanic is dropped
• The drawing request of 1-2 characters are flat color now
• Drawings of 3 characters and comics but these would be sketched (no poll to upgrade)
• All cool downs are of 1 month only.
• The drawing request become exclusive of tier 3, but they are uploaded basically next month
• At least 1 comic of the month
• At least 1 exclusive piece of the month, I get to pick them. But I may do polls or ask for ideas.

Option B: Work over sketchorama ----------------

• The sketchorama cool down only applies for 3 characters and comics (down to 1 month)
• Each month a poll is held to improve the sketchorama pieces (Very likely not all the ideas)
• The winners 2-3 get the drawing improved, but also receive alts over the piece 
• (Most likely the when you give the idea, you can also suggest the possible alts for the next month)
• At least 1 comic of the month

Option C: Leave things as they are ----------------

• At least 1 comic of the month
• The sketchorama remains the same (waiting line and poll mechanic)
• 2 Exclusive pieces of the month, one is my pick, the other is picked through a poll from suggestions

As a note, Level A (Inspiration) and 3 (Color) are the one who can request for drawings.

Level 2 (Sketch) can take part in votings but see all the art
