Polls Closing and Quick Update

Alright! So...I let both the currently running polls run longer than I really should have. So I've shut them both down. Since one of them was a public poll, I'll go ahead and make this post public, though most of it's really more immediately relevant for Patrons.

Alice's Hair Color Poll: This was...not as conclusive as I'd hoped. Mostly on account of my own stupidity. I shouldn't have included two shades of blonde, as that resulted in people who preferred the blond  being split between the two shades. The result was that Red 'won' but between the two shades 'blonde' had one more vote. I'm still debating what to do about that. I think I'm going to go with the Red, since it actually did win and I can't say for certain that the people who voted for one shade of blonde or the other wouldn't have preferred Red over the shade they didn't vote for.... And that was a seriously convoluted sentence. Sorry. Anyway, I'm still waffling a bit, but I most likely will go with Red, mostly for diversity sake since the game already has another blonde in it. 

Monthly Short Story Reward Poll:

I was actually a bit surprised that the new Dungeon of Lewdity short won out over The Elven Maid. I only have a basic outline for the DoL short but I'm planning on fleshing it out over the weekend. Planning like that is one of the few things I ever manage to get done in hotel rooms and I have a short business trip (which I've already mentioned to patrons, just clarifying for the non-patrons). At any rate, I'll probably start actually writing the short sometime next week!

The Dungeon of Lewdity Build 1 Progress:

So, patrons already know that I hit a few snags and wasn't sure I was going to make it by the 15th, which was my original target. And...I'm still not sure. There's actually a half-decent chance I will manage it though, as I finished the last room today. I got back on-track by changing up the other paths a bit. I think my new solution for the Physical Transformation path is  actually better than the original plan...the bondage path is a little shorter than I'd have liked, though. Still not bad, by any means, I'd just have liked to make it a bit more...interactive than it is. It's probably the weakest path at the moment. Which should hopefully change in the long run. 

Unfortunately, I still have several time-intensive things to do. I need to fix the Character Sheet , again. I redid the Appearance sheet as a character sheet once already. But now I've realized that the way I did it is going to be a problem. So I need to redo it again. I also need to write the first 3 'safeword' Epilogues, which will be fairly short...and also do a complete grammar and spelling check of all the new content. Which WON'T be short, sadly. The way TWINE works makes that bit seriously irritating. Then there's a final playtest...and that's an awful lot of stuff to get done in just one day. So, we'll see. Either it will be out for patrons tomorrow...or early next week. No promises other than that (barring death or similar dire circumstance) it won't be later than sometime next week. For patrons, of course. The public will get the demo at the same time, though.
