Floppy Copies for those that want to hold these puppies in their hands.

I thought these books were for just your supporters not the general public?

OptimusSpider

Hey Tracy. That's a valid question. The problem is we reached a bit of an impasse with trying to get new readers. We can re-release past covers without hurting current patrons and we don't control what AP releases so the middle ground, we felt, was releasing a 2nd print of the book so new folks could obtain physical copies and at the same time help fund further projects with the core book. We hope you and everyone here understands this wasn't meant as a slight to the people who have kept this book afloat.

Now, the way this is being done, with a link, doesn't tie up the creators which doesn't halt production of future issues. We learned in November that doing back issues throws a giant wrench in the machine. This method allows people to purchase as needed without interference to Patron fulfillment.

Okay I truly understand, but I hope the 4 profit covers continue to rollout exclusive only to Patron supporters.

OptimusSpider

Well, the 4Profits are for anyone to a Max count of 500. However, patrons pay cost whereas normies pay cost + profit. Meaning, what you guys pay is literally print plus shipping so the don't make money of those which is what is should be as you're all patrons and already pay. You will NEVER pay what non patrons pay.

OptimusSpider

It would just be wrong to try to profit off the people that are already funding the book. Make sense?

Tracy Forrest

Thanks for clearing this up for me. I was confused with this roll out of 2nd prints, 4 profit, and POD. So is POD still on the table?

New Age Ninja Corps

yeah, so the way PODS are gonna work now, is that now that I'm able to tie them into the Store-front I can give out links to specific groups. If I open something up to the gen public, I can also close off areas to them now. So REUPS for Patreon members will always be available, but for the General public we'll let it ride for a month before we close it back off to them. I think I'm able to start doing Hardback with this method as well. The Tier 1 Experimental group will be the test group for this.

You should make these censored copies and allow the Patreon versions to remain uncensored.

OptimusSpider

The problem there is these are meant to be for Patrons or to bring patrons in. Contractually, Brian and Trent CAN'T do a censored version (as they found out after this was tried in November) because it cuts into APs Kool Aid. These will also never carry a Patreon variant cover as well. These are strictly intended as catch up copies for newbies.

Is there any special extra goodness coming down range for OG Operator Level Tier backers in the near future? Ask
