Rewards Update

Hey everyone,

I'm not sure if Patreon automatically notifies you when I change the info on rewards tiers so I wanted to make a post incase it didn't.

I have found over time that some of the "rewards" I place on certain tiers were not actually happening. These were things that I found impractical to implement and follow through on. 

The real goal of this Patreon, and your support, is to help me dedicate time to the VIDEOS and some of these rewards (while small) took away more time than they were worth.

I didn't like having these listed as I wasn't implementing them any longer and I don't want to give the wrong impression to new or potential supporters. So I have removed the following items from the rewards listings:

- Video thank you 

At this point there are over 500 of you! There is no practical way to thank you all individually in videos, and I prefer to as often as possibly simply thank you all as a group in my videos.

- Video topic polls / poll submissions

While I like the idea of you guys helping decide what I make, I've found that the way I operate doesn't actually allow for this sort of system. I need to be very fluid in my projects to work around various other constraints each week. That being said I am always open to suggestions and ideas from you guys. Feel free to post your requests here or in the facebook group. The good ones end up on a list I have to draw from when I am looking for a project.

- Video hangouts

I am no longer set up to stream from my hobby room (dead laptop I havn't replaced) and with so many of you, these sorts of hang outs really become difficult to schedule and make available to everyone. This really worked better in the early days when there were only a handful of people. I do plan on getting the hobby room set up to stream again and may get back to doing streamed crafting sessions both publicly on YouTube and privately with you guys.

I apologies to anyone that may have signed up because of any of these rewards, and I'm sorry to disappoint. I hope you understand that I am trying to place the highest value on time dedicated to the most important thing....the videos (and all the housekeeping that goes along with running this business to keep those videos going).

Cheers!

Jeremy
