On Patreon Vote Subjects
🕑 Added 2018-07-10 23:56:12 +0000 UTC Because this is the first month that I will be trying this patreon vote setup I wanted to make sure I have everything organized ahead of time and will be starting it a little early (official post for Gatecrasher Patrons will be made this weekend along with the weekend post). How it will work is this:All patrons in the second tier will get to make submissions for the vote (again, ALL patrons get to vote, it's the second tier that choose the subjects to vote on). It's possible (even likely) that there will be more submissions than its possible to create a vote system for - in this case two things will be used to parse down the number of options:
1) Similar subjects will be grouped together and voted on separately. For example, if three people suggest a specific kind of scene but with different character, the scene concept will be posted as an option and then a second vote will be done, if it wins, based on specific submissions of subjects and character.
2) If there is ever so many subjects that they cannot be grouped in this way (and that seems very implausible, but just in case), then separate votes will be made to whittle down the options until they fit in a single, final vote.
3) Finally, if it becomes a reoccurring issue, the suggestions call for it, and there is enough participation. I will try to update the system to allow for multiple patreon rewards based on tiers. As things stand I think I would like to have a patreon reward vote for every $100 of patreon but we will see how reasonable an idea that is moving forward.
The post itself will also detail some basic restrictions on Patreon reward subjects. Mainly the same restrictions I have on commissions: no non-consensual sexual subjects (no rape, child pornography, abuse, etc. All sexual situations must contain willing, non-coerced, participants). Copyright characters are allowed so long as they fall into fanart territory in subject matter, and OCs are absolutely allowed so long as you can provide me with references AND I have permission to draw them in the subject (some OCs are only for specific subjects according to their creators/owners and I am not in the habit of disrespecting people's characters by ignoring those restrictions).
TLDR: Submissions will begin early, this weekend, for Patreon reward votes.

I hope I'm able to hop in! I'll be at a convention.
