Okay, okay, okay, I'm still a little sick and this is super random and bizarre, but I did have a lot of time to think I guess and I came up with a new perk-idea that will apply to ALL of my patrons (Yes! That means YOU!)

So here it is:

As you all know my schedule is full to overflowing and therefore I can't afford to take on new shows without specific spots opening up for them

BUT

I do want to try out new things, as much as I can, whenever I'm able. Therefore I figured I'll start offering ONE EXTRA EPISODE REACTION (2 if it's 20 min long) a month, available for patrons on all tiers.

And how will this random pilot be selected, you ask? THIS is where the fun part comes in!

I'M GONNA DO A LOTTERY.

Muhahahaha.

I don't know why I find this idea so exciting, but I do lol.

Anyway, the rules are rather simple (I hope...):

1. If you're an active (=made a pledge this month) patron, you're going to be entered for a chance to win.

2. The number of entries you get IS affected by how long you've been supporting me. For each $100 in lifetime pledge amount, you get an extra entry. (Meaning that if the overall amount that you've supported me with is, for example, $205, you will be entered 3 times and not just once.)
I hope I managed to explain that... Ask me anything in the comments if you're confused:)

3. The lottery will be held 1 week before the end of each month so I have time to actually prepare the reaction. That means you'd have to pledge before that time to have your name included:)

So that's it: My spanking brand new Patreon Pilot Perk idea! All patrons have a chance to win which is what I love about this idea so much, and also I get to diversify my schedule by getting a taste of a new show every month, without overwhelming myself (more than I already do). It's a win-win🤩

This month will obviously be different as it's very nearly the end of it but I do want to try this idea out. So I'm gonna let you guys know who the winner is tomorrow, and make sure to get the pilot reaction ready for Sunday.

Are you excited?! I'm excited!!

On slightly other news, reactions will resume regularly from Sunday as well. I'm bummed I missed out on this week, but sadly I was just not up to it😪 Here's to quickly catching up on everything!💪

Let me know your thoughts! I'll see you all soon😘

I like the idea! If you enjoy the pilot does it subsequently get added to your recording schedule? Or a poll for the next new series addition? Or if you just totally hate it you skip it entirely?Which is fair! Lol

Good questions!! So, it's not going to be a guarantee, but shows that I reacted to their pilots and loved are definitely going to rank higher on my lists and probably be included in upcoming polls. Also, it doesn't *strictly* have to be a pilot. If you win the lottery you could potentially also ask for an episode from a show that I already started. So if someone would like me to continue a show, they could always ask for the second episode for instance if they get picked again:) I have no idea how often that will happen, but I'm sure it's quite possible...:D And lastly, I'm gonna do my very best not to judge a show COMPLETELY based on the first episode. A lot of shows start off slow or hit their stride further in, and I'm aware of that. So if I ABSOLUTELY FUCKING HATE the episode, then errr I guess we'll see, but overall I try not to erase shows completely off my lists unless I've given them what I feel is a fair shot. It WILL however give me a good indication for what some shows are about and also how excited I am to get to continue them, and I think that's a good thing. Building up anticipation is a good motivator, right?😆

How long do people have to respond with a series? And if they don't respond, will there be a 'next in line' type of thing?

That sounds really good

Sounds cool, another idea, why don't you charge a certain a higher amount for special request, I know the normies were doing that, but go overloaded because there so huge, might be easier for you to manage.

Keep It Zen

Sounds fun :) hope i win

Very great question indeed!:) Usually I think I'd expect an answer within a couple of days. If they don't respond in that time frame, then yes, I will pick another winner! Also, obviously, for the first winner this time it will have to be shorter and I'll need a reply as soon as possible. Let's hope it works out!:D

show7tell

That's the plan actually! That's what the $30-tier is for. It's not exactly active yet, but as soon as I finish enough shows, that's where you'll be able to make special requests!:D
