Hey Fam,
I wanted to reach out to you guys and gals to briefly let you know what's happening this week, and into early next week, just in case I'm less engaged than usual.
This coming weekend (and into early next week), Erin and I are moving to Santa Monica. So this week, I have to pack. I'm a minimalist by nature, and I pride myself on not having a lot of worldly possessions, but still, I haven't moved in seven years, so things stack up. Hundreds of books, video games, memorabilia, some furniture, TV, clothing, and on and on and on. I have a lot to go through, pack, and (hopefully) get rid of, too.
I pride myself on being super-engaged not only here on Patreon, but in the YouTube comments, on Reddit, Facebook, et cetera. This week may be just a little different, because I really have to focus on getting all of this shit done. So while you'll still get your News Burst tomorrow (Tuesday), Wednesday, and Friday, and while you'll get all-new videos on Thursday and Monday, you may notice me hanging around here, the YouTube comments, and social media a little less. I apologize in advance about that. I'm going to do my best to see that there's no noticeable difference at all, but time is of the essence right now!
While I have your attention, I wanted to make a few notes:
1.) I've sent out four of the five "batches" of postcards for $50+/month March supporters, and the fifth and final batch will go out Wednesday-ish. People have been Tweeting at me their postcards, so they're starting to arrive. Keep an eye on your mailboxes!
2.) Some folks have been inquiring why their names aren't in the credits even though they're at the $25+/month level. Dagan and I missed a few people, but it seems that most people asking actually pledged in April, meaning their names will be in May's credits, and so on and so forth. Remember that, for the postcards, credits, and thank you videos, the month previous is what counts. So, if you were at that level in March, you'll see your name in the credits in April, or get your postcard in April, or whatever else. I know that can be confusing to some folks, so I want to make sure everyone understands.
You don't get charged until early the month after you pledge, so it's simply a way to make sure no one games the system. Once your payment is processed for the previous month, your "prize," as it were, goes into affect that following month. So all names from April should be in the credits by May 5th, which will be the same for the following month, and so on. I'm sorry I didn't make that clearer, for anyone still confused.
I hope you all have a fantastic week, and that you're enjoying the content so far. It's really a great honor to have you all here with me, and I thank you for having the faith in me to take this journey alongside me.
Take care, -Colin
