HAPPY NEW YEARS!! + Tier 3 Update
🕑 Added 2023-01-02 23:04:01 +0000 UTCHello all patron! Hope you had a fun new year. Thanks for stickin around the Patreon even if it sees some periods of inactivity, the support is very much appreciated and makes it so stuff like the new years stream (and the time it took to build the tech) is possible. Still waiting on approval on all the BTS for the Spamton stream, but when it's approved I'll be very happy to share some thoughts and vids here. :)
Just an update on the Tier 3 "every 3 months" thing. Since the last 2 tapes were so heavily delayed, partially because its been hard to find consistent sources of VHS tapes in lots of 50-100 every 3 months, and partially because designing the sleeves, getting them printed, etc also encounters delays, Tier 3's physical rewards will no longer be limited to just VHS tapes. The last 2 tapes (WSKR from October and MEMORIEZ from this month) will still be tapes, because I announced them as such, but the next reward will be different. I'm going to announce it partway through January, around the same time the WSKR tapes get shipped, and the MEMORIEZ tape will be shipped once I receive the materials... which doesn't have an ETA. :( But rest assured if you subscribed October through December you're all good, I've written your name down.
I think because of the fact that I'm doing my rewards on weird mediums shipping them out every 3 months is not realistic, so I'm going to remove that from the tier description. However I'll keep the "every 3 months" funding thing since thats been pretty good. I'll still try to stick to shipping every 3 months, but for bigger projects like VHS tapes delays are unpredictable, so it's not a guarantee. Essentially at the end of every 3 months period, I just look through every active Tier 3 member and see if their payment for the last 3 months came through. Then I write down all the usernames in prep for when I have to print the labels.
Thanks for stickin around Tier 3 even if there's been delays. Its a lot of fun figuring out what weird thing to send next, and Tier 3 is where I want to start putting my weirder work that doesn't "fit well" anywhere else. I always wanna make sure it's something I personally would want to put on display, or watch/listen to/play, so I appreciate the support.
In the coming months I'll be trying out new stuff for the Patreon. Since I like going thrift shopping for weird media so much, I thought I'd start making little vids about what I find for ppl here, among other things. Stay tune!! and Happy new day ok.

thrift shop haul vids would be cool! on the delays: theyve been tolerable because i knew what i was waiting for was gonna be awesome. if the last tapes take a while i wont sweat it, and im sure whatever else you decide send our way will be just as great :]
