New Tiers since December ( Not confirmed yet )
🕑 Added 2019-11-29 20:40:54 +0000 UTCFinally decided to go with the idea of the last text post, i'll do 2 request tiers, the first of $6 having the same things as the $4 tier and adding the sketch request posibility and a $10 one with the same things as the $8 tier but adding the comic sketch request ( with more frames if needed, becoming some page sketches long)
The first will have a limit of 6 patrons and the second a limit of 4 patrons. You'll have to think your next month request days before the current month ends, so you're sure you have something to request and if you dont have any ideas you can let other guy to go to that tier :D
My apologies always to keep changing the request thing, im mostly going for like a trial and error to see what's the best way to work without getting really stressed and offering great stuff always, my patreon really ended up being like request only post, i even couldnt make time to post a new page of the Robin comic this month and its my fault for thinking im able to do so much things at the same time when im not AYYYYY
So yeah, maybe with this i'll be more able to do more patreon exclusives and non-request stuff like i was doing before!! And still leaving some of you request things, because i actually love a lot your requests, you guys actually have really good concepts always, that's why i never will stop accepting reqs here haha
[ EDIT 'cause its not that clear: since December we will have 5 tiers now! - $2, $4, $6, $8 and $10, the two new ones having a request option and a limit of patrons per month! ]

I like this idea a really lot pelli, thank you so much!! In that case everyone have the same probability to get choosen and i also can choose the amount of pics im able to do each time. I'll do a post asap to see what everyone thinks about this, in my opinion is perfect

If you're still unsure about this one, you could do a rotating system or lottery? Basically, say like 6 patrons from a certain tier get the basic sketch requests. Just put all their names on a numbered list, then use a random number generator to choose them. That way you aren't always doing sketches for the same 6 people every month, and both new and old patrons have a chance to get their requests in.

I really know it's unfair for the people who have been paying for the max tiers for a while now! I have been thinking about it for the whole week, since it's the tier with more patrons than the rest of them, but i remembered this patreon started just for exclusive content, never really for requests, it becomes an extra just when i saw i didnt get more than 30 patrons per month! I felt really capable to offer requests to all back then :,O Funtimes won't work here neither, since i got to know that all my patrons see the posts in really different times during the day, a lot will always lose the oportunity in any case :( Requests have been becoming a small problem tho, i started to do a lot less exclusive patreon content and i had to deny to do commissions just to finish requests in time, i really thought this would be a good idea and a win-win situation for us all-

I don’t really think it’s fair to limit the amount of people who can offer you requests, especially for those of us who have been here since the beginning. There are those of us who have paid the max tier amount since the start, and it seems unfair for us to lose that based on a first come first serve basis where we’ll maybe get a spot. Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely understand that there’s no way for you to get all these requests done in time, Ai. Honestly, I saw this eventually becoming a problem as your fanbase grew. I think it might be in your best interests for you to do away with tier requests altogether. Maybe just have times once or twice a month where you take, say, half a dozen requests in the comments of a post, depending on what your work load can handle. That way we all have a fair chance of getting chosen. Think of it like Funtime, but here on Patreon instead.
Oh, okay!

Nothing, old tiers will still be the same :D the change is that requests will now be a thing just for the two new tiers!
I'm sorry, I just woke up and this is all too confusing for me, what will happen exactly for the people who were pledged before like me with 8 bucks?
