MUST-READ: Per-Month Payment
Added 2019-02-08 18:26:06 +0000 UTCThank you all so much for sharing your feelings—positive and negative—on my decision. It meant so much to see so many messages of support. I have been blessed throughout my Patreon's run with incredibly supportive readers; some of you were worrying about me burning myself out even before I was! :P
I have overhauled the Patreon to Per-Month Payments, meaning that the money you pledge will be the total paid per-month, rather than an amount to be multiplied 3-5 times.
I'm hoping this will make the Patreon much easier for you and I to follow and budget by, but it does mean that right now, I'm set to make about a quarter my usual paycheck. That's a pretty scary number! So as soon as possible, update your pledge!
NEW PLEDGE TIERS
Here's a basic rundown on how the new tiers compare with the old, to give you an idea of where you might want to adjust to depending on your budget. Hope it helps! I really appreciate the support of those of my readers who can't afford the higher-level pledges, so I tried to make sure there was something for everyone. :)
We also have a couple new higher-end tiers. Before, I couldn't really add these without worrying about how to account for capped pledges.
No hard feelings if "$150 a month" sounds a bit nuts—it does to me, too, but it's there if anyone wants to be able to just request a full story every other month. ;D
Coming next month, I am going to update this Patreon to "Pay Up Front" as well. I'm going to do this basically on the 28th, to ensure nobody is caught updating their pledge and has to pay twice for the month. It won't affect existing patrons, just new recruits!
Comments
The queue will be properly sorted out after the next round of payments. Also, a reminder that there is currently no D&D game, since we haven't hit the pledge goal—I might be willing to start running a bit early, but I at least want to wait to hit around $1,500 (which is around where I was, in effect, before the transition). As for character creation, there will be! We'll be working with a slight variant of D&D 5e, so character creation will have to be tinkered with a bit to match. :) Currently, the queue looks like: Carol_J (who is also a $69-level pledger and will play every month regardless) Chris Acrophobia Jimmy (if their payment confirms) Sothe Dain (if their payment confirms) Yshomatsu (if their payment confirms) Robert Higbie (if your payment confirms :P)

2019-02-10 17:14:07 +0000 UTCJust a heads up, I just changed my tier after the change and the thank you note that displays is now out of date I think? Maybe it's not but I thought this may be something easy to overlook in the process of changing things over.

2019-02-08 18:38:18 +0000 UTCQuestion, what would be the difference between dnd queue and monthly dnd?
