Multiple Updates

Alright, first off, before I get to the updates proper. I'm not sure why the $10+ poll closed itself early. It was supposed to be timed the same as the other poll. One of you super-awesome $10 patrons hasn't voted, and I reopened the poll just in case you missed it on account of the premature closure of the poll. 

Now for the Updates! There are updates for Polls, $10 Reward, and the Short Story.

Polls:

I admit I'm totally shocked that "Focus on things around the Academy" is winning the poll O.O. I don't have a problem with it, mind you. Indeed, doing lots of little scenes is actually sorta-kinda-easierish than the bigger more complex dates. It's a little harder on the creative side, but that's actually the easier half for me (or rather, the part I enjoy, which makes it easier). If it wins, there will be a pair of follow-up polls about:

1) What general type of content. (Bondage, Sub/Dom, Toys, Pet Play, etc.) If it goes this route not ALL the content will be of the type voted for, it'll just be the most numerous. There will also be an option for "A bit of everything," if people want to be surprised.

and

2) The primary focus of which gender pairing gets the most focus. (Female/Female, Male/Female, Trios, Solo Faith). Again, it if the poll ends that way, it won't be ONLY the one type of content (unless the vote is overwhelming ^_^), but it'll be more heavily slanted toward the winner. 

New $10+ Reward:

Good news! I pounded away over the weekend and today (as well as overcoming an unusual case of writer's block) and I officially have all the renders for the mixed media story reward ready. I also have a outline for the story, and some of the dialogue, I just have to figure out how to mesh everything into a format I'm unfamiliar with. Unless something goes wrong, or I have a LOT more trouble then I think I will with the format, it should be finished and up sometime latish tomorrow!

Short Story:

The  "Tali, Alyssa, AND Sandra" options won the short story poll, and Jaylee has begun the process of writing the short story. Because we did the poll and she'd only just now started the process, the short will be released somewhat later this month. It shouldn't be later than mid-month, however. I'll try to keep you updated as she lets me know how it's going.

On a further note for the Short Stories... If anyone is concerned about them stopping on account of the potential switchover to slower updates (if that happens), don't worry! A short story will still be packaged with each update, should that switchover happen, and they might actually be a bit longer and more detailed with the extra time.
