Patreon Payment Changes (Patreon)

Recently, Patreon has made some changes to the way pledges are handled that we think you should all be made aware of:

In addition to your normal pledge, Patreon will now be charging you a small additional fee of 2.9% + $0.35. So, a $1 patron will be charged a total of about $1.38 now, and a $3 patron will be charged a total $3.44. 

The huge upshot of this changes is that, when you pledge $1, we get 95 cents. Before, this percent varied a lot more wildly -- we made only about 57 cents on $1 pledges. In fact, this streamlines the whole process much more gracefully: we always get 95% of your pledge, which is awesome for us. And larger pledges, of course, are more efficient for you. 

I know nobody wants to spend more money (and if it were up to us, I wouldn't ask you to), but I hope this doesn't push anyone away continuing their pledge here at Middle Finger of Vecna -- we've got so much more on the horizon, it'd be a shame to lose anyone's pledge due to a change on Patreon's end.

Thanks again to everyone that pledges here regularly and makes this whole nerdy thing possible. It's genuinely hard to express how much it means to us, and we intend to keep earning your pledge with quality content every month.
