Points System Update, More information and improvements.
🕑 Added 2018-09-16 21:05:59 +0000 UTC Hi guys! I told you I'd get you another post on this once I developed the points system a little more.I talked about this a lot with you guys in the Patreon Discord Chat for $5+ patrons, and it seemed like you guys liked the idea of it a lot, and even gave me some tips on how to save myself from having the system become difficult to handle.
I took all of your advice and made as many improvements to the points system where I could, so here's another short draft of information coming at you!
As you know about the points system from the last post, this was made so I can get Patron Rewards out at better times while giving you the freedom to request them whenever you would like.
This system will also give me more time to work on the comic and produce more content for Patreon as a way to help improve posting, considering I also work a full time job that eats away at any available time I have to work on the comic and this patreon itself.
So some improvements have been taken into consideration since the last discussion, so I'll just talk about those quick!
Points Cap.
I will be using a points cap for each tier that is being pledged. This was a suggested method in order to tackle a possible problem of being over encumbered with too many rewards for me to handle on the short time I have. I still plan on keeping the reward tiers fair though, so I'm not gonna make it so you can't get anything with your saved points obviously. In addition to this, you can also use any of your saved points to discount your commissions with me!
Earning Points.
Just to recap, there will be various ways you can earn points towards rewards. While you have to be on a rewards tier to begin receiving points (as little as $5+) you can also earn points by donating via drawing streams or donating to my ko-fi page.
Donating will still accrue points even if you are not on a rewards tier, but the cap on points will be low unless you support a higher tier. This will be a good way to test out how points work for those who may consider supporting higher tiers later on!
The limit of each reward will still be one reward per month, but you now have more flexibility to customize rewards more attune to what you would like, like adding more characters, saving up for more details, etc.
The points system is still young and will probably be subject to change as time goes on. But there's a basic rundown!
If you have more questions, concerns, suggestions, or stuff I didn't cover, post them here!
There will be a Patreon stream Next week to finish off rewards!
The Points System will officially be instated on Oct. 5th, 2018! As a bonus, everyone will start out with 5 Points!
Thanks for reading!
