An Update For $10 Patreons
Added 2018-05-16 22:01:00 +0000 UTCHi everyone, Jackson here!
You have probably heard by now that we have recently restructured the patreon, because recent changes in living circumstances have left both Em and I in more financially precarious and generally stressful positions. We love doing the network, and we want to be able to keep doing it for as long as we can without collapsing and burning out!
The reason we're sending a message to $10 patrons specifically is to go over the changes we're making to the $10 dollar tier. In our current living situation, we can't afford the money and time costs of buying games and playing them for guest episodes, so we're raising that reward to the $20 tier going forward.
The great news is that if you are someone who subscribed for that goal, we're still keeping track! If you're reading this then you're already subscribed and will get your next slot - where you can either guest on any of our shows, or just take control of what we play/read/etc without appearing personally - when you have subscribed for six months, as it has been until now. According to my spreadsheet, three of you will be due next month so expect some messages soon!
But that's not all!
The $10 tier isn't going away, it's changing! The feedback we've gotten from the majority of people we've approached for guest slots so far is that a lot of you are supporting because you just like the network, and would rather we spend our time making more and better shows.
So, from now on the $10 reward tier will be a bi-weekly show from me and Em called Voip Life. This is our equivalent of a behind the scenes show, a lighter and goofier show where we record and share conversations that we usually be going undocumented. It is the show for people who are fans of the network rather than fans of any particular topic; if you want more of us joking around and hanging out: this is where you can get it. Look forward to our first episode, coming very soon!
I hope that makes sense to everyone and you understand our process behind these changes, and that you're looking forward to the new show!
