POLL RESULTS: Restructuring the Lower Tier Commission Intake System - LOOKING FOR FEEDBACK

UPDATE:

Hey all! Thank you for your feedback on this.

The poll winner by a landslide was "How I'm Considering it to Be".  
Please check the details on the graphic below (beneath said title) to gain a rough understanding of how this will go about.

Regardless, I will still experiment in the future with some commission slot auctions on FA with a snipe guard implemented. I may also try one or two purely interest based sketch comms each year to see how it goes. These will both be completely separate from Patreon and have nothing to do with it at all.

Given my last patron sketch commission opening was in December/January, I will plan for a similar opening timeframe this year. Exact dates will be announced as we get closer.

Explanation:

When checking exit surveys, I see some folks saying they're unhappy with their perks. I can only assume that means they're upset they didn't get a commission slot within my very limited openings, or got tired of waiting for my very limited openings.  

It got me thinking of how I can make a more predictable and satisfying system for patron commissions outside of my expensive Commission Club tiers.  

If people are subscribing to only grab a commission slot, that's absolutely not what my Patreon is for. I've restructured wording on my tiers to make this more obvious.

Altogether though, I figure that having commission slots as a patron first dib perk allows you to also see my HQ art early, have a say in changes via poll (like this), and have a closer community.

I won't be able to please everyone, but I can certainly gauge opinions, take feedback, and try to create a more predictable and satisfying system for you all.
