A LOT OF MISC POLLS LATELY!

Anyways, i've been thinking about some massive changes I could do to my Patreon. I'm posting this as a Poll so I can kinda gauge community census, but i'd love to hear comments as well!

My thought process for these: 

$1 tier makes very little income despite being quite robust

$5 request poll tier has bad participation outside of the $10 tier supporters

I love the idea of weekly sketches, but currently don't think I can go for that commitment where my page's at right now

I feel like the benefits separating the tiers can be a little confusing as to where they split

I don't want to be divisive

I want to be able to add and warrant more and more content in the future, especially as Fatsona gets closer to the sauce

I want to please YOU!

Vote for the ones you think are good ideas, and leave a reply if you think they all SUCK!THANK YOU ALL!  NONE OF THESE ARE GUARANTEED TO GO THROUGH, SO LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU LIKE AND DISLIKE!

You should make the patreon $10 only and have all tier benefits to go with it, That way you can maximize profit from a smaller following while still keeping it somewhat cheap enough

You already know how to please me ;) Moving them to $10 is a good idea

Personally I wouldn't continue pledging if there was only a $10 tier option for financial reasons, but do what you think is best

I don't dislike the idea of merging everything into $8. If $1 isn't making you any real money for the work involved, then I understanding needing to up prices and while the number of individual patrons would likely drop from such a price hike, im sure the extra income would make up for it. I'm a little concerned that the only benefit to a price increase (except $10 patrons of course) would be weekly sketches which you yourself say would be tough to do. I know I wouldn't want fatsona development to slow because of extra responsibilities or for less refined art like the monthly pieces or the drive pieces to become less frequent. As for the lack of request poll interaction at $5, is that necessarily a bad thing? I'm a $5 patron and some months I just choose not to use that benefit either because someone else puts down my request or I don't want to, but still want to support your art! Sorry for the rambling message, just had a few thoughts about this!

The only reason folks ever do $1 is for the early content due to finances. But you do you
