October Call For Questions (Patreon)

It's a new month and time for new questions. In an ideal world, I'd be able to answer everyone's questions every month. In THIS world, this simply isn't possible. For those who are new to the IFAQ process, here's how it works.

Given the volume of questions I receive, I limit myself to answering one question per patron per month, to try to spread my time out as evenly as possible. You can ASK multiple questions, because it may be one is easier for me to answer than another—but if you ask seven questions, I'm only going to answer one of them.

If I can answer a question in 2-3 sentences, I will answer it here (as a reply to your comment). If I can answer a question in 2-3 paragraphs, it may be answered as an IFAQ article, but I only have time to post 1-3 IFAQs per month. If it would take 2-3 pages to answer the question, that's a Dragonshard article and I can only do one or two of those a month. I am going to do a poll this month, allowing Patrons to vote on which longer topic becomes a Dragonshard. So you can ask longer questions, but keep in mind that only the most popular one will get answered1

If I would have to do significant research to answer a question, that increases its effective size. It may be that the question only takes a few sentences to answer—but if I'd have to do two hours of research and contemplation to answer it, it's going toget passed over.

If you asked a question didn't get answered in a previous month, you're always welcome to ask it again, though consider how these guidelines apply! There's always good questions I just don't have time to answer.

As always, thanks for your support!
