Suggestions on how to improve sketch request selection
Added 2021-11-01 17:25:29 +0000 UTCIt seems the method I used to fill the sketch request slots lead to some issues, especially with the... funkiness of the Patreon app, connectivity issues, latency, etc.
I'm not sure how else to fairly select the 15 sketch requests aside from some raffle (which appears to be against patreon rules?).
If anyone has any suggestions, I'm open to hearing them to try to improve everyone's experience!

Yea, i meant more like a poll for something being added as a tier reward. Not necessarily for the sketch requests (it'd indeed be unfair for OCs)

2021-11-01 18:55:42 +0000 UTCPerhaps not a poll because personally that would allow Media characters to have an advantage over OC characters so it would lead to a generalization of them over people's OC. So I don't think it would be fair to do a poll for this sort of stuff.

2021-11-01 18:54:19 +0000 UTCI think a good idea could just be better timing. Because of the difference time zones I had to wait till I was at work to put in my name. Maybe Make sure it’s at a time where people can get on their home computers and hopefully have a better connection?

2021-11-01 18:07:26 +0000 UTCI've been thinking about adding some polling feature! Definitely something to explore

2021-11-01 17:51:43 +0000 UTCVoting poll is a good idea! You take all the suggestions and have people vote, and you take the Top 15!

2021-11-01 17:49:22 +0000 UTCYea the limiting of "no sketches 2 months in a row" sounds like a simple way to go.

2021-11-01 17:47:29 +0000 UTCYea if i dont get to them this month, I'll prioritize those who didnt get in for December for sure

2021-11-01 17:46:42 +0000 UTCHard to say Was gonna say, you should just take prompts that you like Or just put a limit to the patreon requests Like 15 users only for that tier Or just not accept one's from those who already got requests for two turns

2021-11-01 17:44:00 +0000 UTCMaybe some of them, particularly the newer ones, can be held over to December?

2021-11-01 17:32:08 +0000 UTCYes I've seen that feature, but wouldn't that restrict the same 15 people in a limited sketch tier to remain there each month?

2021-11-01 17:29:17 +0000 UTCYou can set Patreon tiers to allow only a certain amount of patrons for that tier. I've seen it on other Patreon accounts. https://support.patreon.com/hc/en-us/articles/204606165-Limit-spaces-in-my-Tiers#:~:text=Step%201%3A%20While%20logged%20in,limit%20number%20of%20patrons%20checkbox.
