August Submission Question

So, with Stark and Veeshan123 using their bonus votes... Option 1 (Elvish Warriors Vs Monstrous Spider) is the winner!  I have to admit, I didn't think the vote would be so close (5/4/Misc)~

In anycase, everyone who voted for the other options get a bonus vote of their very own. :D

So, I'll be putting up the August Submission thread tomorrow.  But I have a question... I know from last month's survey that you all feel quite strongly about making sure the same mini-comic plot doesn't win month after month in a row. Do you also feel the same general fetish shouldn't continuously win?  I'm asking this because both this month and last month are heavy oviposition - should August have a "Not ovipostion / egg filling / impregnation" restriction? If you feel such restrictions are warranted I think I'd go with a general "not 3 in a row" restriction.

I think the savable bonus votes will go a long way in ensuring the exact same thing doesn't keep winning, and to ensure the more obscure fetishes have their day. At !3 I can define "same" pretty broadly and not worry about it. !2 means I have to decide what the "central" fetish was every month. A LOT of fetishes overlap. Perhaps voting will end up needing a !2 restriction to ensure variety, but I'd rather try !3 first. If folk want to take it on themselves to not vote for anything they felt won last month, more power to them. ;)

I share the opinion of some others, "not two in a row" is better. Some fetish are more popular than other so without this kind of limitations those fetishes will keep winning month after month and other fetishes will maybe never be seen, which will, in a way, force you to be kind of specialized in those fetishes. Or at least if a specified fetish appear regularly each month but is never selected, maybe it can be a good alternative to give this/those regular fetishes more chances to be selected because they appear often but are never selected. As Foo Bar said, variety is good, and it's important because without variety you become a specialized artist, and I think it's not in the idea of this Patreon or in your projects ^^

I think it's easier to keep track of "not two in a row". If the central fetish of a certain month was something, just have it off the table next time. In the event an idea has multiple overlapping fetishes, just pick one to be forbidden. Variety is good!

Foo Bar

I feel the same way. It would add variety to the monthly mini series and gives others a chance to see something they want or at the least different to the previous month. Bring the option back after a month or 2 and we shall see how that goes.

Yeah honestly it would be nice if the same thing didn't come up twice in a row. It's a bit boring when that happens.

How important is the breeding part of the idea to you? I recall seeing a pic where defeated adventurers were kept by dragons as collared sex slaves. So it would be the same idea minus the egg laying. Of course if the breeding is the main draw then disregard this :P

Stark

I'm a little sad that my idea will have to wait but it 's OK I'll come up with something else

Jarick

Looking like agreement. I was kinda concerned that we'd end up with tentacle breeding, spider egg filling, then dragon breeding / egg laying next month, and (MINOR SPOILER) the main comic will have some oviposition as well a couple months from now.

GrimFC

I think overall it will be healthier if themes are mixed up a bit, even if some are more popular than others

veeshan123

I'm with lithoboli on this one it would be good to see stuff change up every so often

Jarick

Me to but there is always another chance

Jarick

Not three in a row sounds fair. Oviposition is totally my thing though, so I'm content.

Lithoboli

Darn, I was really hoping for dragon breeding.
