Yearly warning: Top Tens cost double! Yeah, I know, I'm sorry
Added 2017-01-04 17:22:25 +0000 UTCOkay, so, I am finishing up the Worst List right now, and like last year, I am splitting the top tens into two videos and charging each half as separate videos. That means the two lists will count as four videos in January. I do apologize for that but the top ten lists are twice the length and three times the work.
If you think this is bullshit (which, honestly, I don't really have a counter-argument for) you DO NOT HAVE TO PAY for four videos! You can actually put a limit on how many videos you get charged for per month. So, if you only want to pay for two (or even just one) you can change your settings for this month, or even for all months in the future if you want.
Really, you don't have to pay for anything if you don't want. I just appreciate whatever you guys want to give me. Thanks so much!

I have a limit, but it's set to 3.
2017-01-09 14:07:31 +0000 UTCYeah, it's fine. It's like the double-size, year-end annual issue that magazines used to do.

2017-01-06 16:28:13 +0000 UTCI appreciate the heads up, but your Top Ten lists are my favorite and they're totally worth it.
2017-01-06 02:53:41 +0000 UTCThanks for being upfront ahead of time rather than after the fact. Much appreciated.
2017-01-06 01:23:20 +0000 UTCNo cap for my favorite music youtuber <3

2017-01-05 17:07:27 +0000 UTCFair enough, they are more work and I always look forward to them
2017-01-05 15:43:43 +0000 UTCwould gladly support you Todd :)

2017-01-05 15:37:46 +0000 UTCIt's kinda sad that there are people out there who were going to give you crap for this and you had to post this warning.
2017-01-05 13:45:15 +0000 UTCThank you for sending out a message beforehand. I think, like with any work, you should be paid for your job. If that means you're putting in overtime, you get paid a little extra!
2017-01-05 06:33:24 +0000 UTCYour top ten list of whatever year are the best Todd and are totally worth it! Can't wait!

2017-01-05 04:51:00 +0000 UTCI think it's nice that you post these warnings. And still totally on ok with it, looking forward to the lists!

2017-01-05 01:21:36 +0000 UTCI enjoy the top 10 lists immensely, and wish you would do them more often (those worst songs of 19XX are among my favorite videos). And I don't mind at all paying for things that I like commensurate with their value.
2017-01-05 00:11:58 +0000 UTCI don't think you need to apologize for price hikes like this. You're a really talented guy, and I think you need all the money yo can get.
2017-01-04 20:24:58 +0000 UTCConsidering how long these lists take you, shouldn't you get paid in a way that reflects your time investment? Only seems fair to me. It's not like you're releasing four 1 minute videos (though I'd be cool with that too if the videos were really, really funny but I digress).

2017-01-04 19:25:41 +0000 UTCthank you for writing these warnings, it's really super cool of you! but of course, you deserve to be paid double for doing the insane work involved in these top 10/bottom 10 lists. thank you.

2017-01-04 18:53:16 +0000 UTCDon't mind, I'm super excited for your top tens!!!!
2017-01-04 18:24:08 +0000 UTCI can't give much, but I'm always up for a little more if that's what you need. Your top 10 lists are my favorite.

2017-01-04 17:40:48 +0000 UTCConsidering the time you put on them, it's only fair to pay double. I can afford it, so I'm glad to. But it's nice of you to give a heads-up for those who can't. You're a great guy!
2017-01-04 17:37:14 +0000 UTCHappy to pay. Excited to watch.
2017-01-04 17:35:17 +0000 UTCHappy to pay for them, Todd. All your videos are worth it. Thank you for making them!
2017-01-04 17:30:54 +0000 UTCI'll just chime in with the others, and say that I'll up the limit I've put on, so you get some dollardollar for all of them. And you really are a truly nice guy for warning people like that, that very admirable.

2017-01-04 17:28:47 +0000 UTCThese videos are something I look forward to each new year, more than happy to pay for two-parters. :)
2017-01-04 17:28:16 +0000 UTCYour best and worst videos are totally worth the money. I won't be setting a limit any time soon. Can't wait to watch them!
2017-01-04 17:27:48 +0000 UTCAnd like last year, I'm going to lift my usual three-videos-per-month cap and pay for all four parts, because I really appreciate all the work you put into your year-end lists, and they're probably my favorite thing you do.

2017-01-04 17:27:04 +0000 UTCDude, it's no worries in my book. Thanks for the heads up but like Matt said: definitely worth it.

2017-01-04 17:26:01 +0000 UTCI'll put down 8$ this month gladly. Can't wait for you to tear 2016 a new one!
Carson Morris
2017-01-04 17:25:52 +0000 UTCI will gladly pay $2 per video. They are definitely worth it 😎
