NEW TIER COMING! ... Waitlist-centric Tier! + Regular STREAM RAFFLES!
Added 2024-09-05 19:48:51 +0000 UTCUpdate: simplified and clarified information
The leaves are starting to turn...
Change is in the air...
And change coming to my Patreon too! A couple of big additions....
A brand new tier is on the horizon, Reaper Cuttlefish tier!
This tier will be perfect for you if you're interested in being prioritized on my brand new waitlist for a commission; which can be either Sketch or Inked style, and any level of render.
Reaper Cuttlefishes will be reaping the benefits of:
Priority on the waitlist
Able to participate in Flat N Chill Stream slots with 1 month cooldown instead of 2 if you claim the slot while in Reaper Cuttlefish tier.
If you choose to stay on the waitlist after a waitlist commission is completed, and are a member of Reaper Cuttlefish tier, you are re-added to the list 75% of the way down instead of 100% at the bottom.
Details:
The tier will cost $10 USD
You're free to downgrade back to $6 Pharaoh Cuttlefish tier once you're on the waitlist; your spot will be safe.
** Upgrading to Reaper tier doesn't affect your current existing FCF cooldown; once your current cooldown is up, and if you then claim a slot while being in the new Reaper tier, that is when your cooldown will be set to 1 month instead of 2!
If you leave the Patreon entirely, you will be removed from the waitlist.
As long as you are $2 tier at least, you will stay on the list.Waitlist will be worked on in order; not randomly.
The amount of time you may wait on the waitlist, is random. It could be months, depending on how long it gets and where you end up on the list.Waitlist slots will be worked on Mondays and Tuesdays in stream, alongside public slots.
I won't be able to give you a date for when it may be started, but you can keep an eye on my public Telegram Art & Announcement channel to see what I will be working on at the beginning of each streaming day!If you'd like to stay on the waitlist for another commission after your first slot is finished from being on the waitlist, if you are still in Reaper Cuttlefish tier in the month of completion, you will jump down 75% of the list instead of 100% to the bottom. If you are downgraded at time of completion and want to stay on the list, you can upgrade and gain the benefit of being moved up again.
You will be asked to fill out a form only when it's your turn on the waitlist.
Giant Cuttlefishes will also be re-added 75% of the way down the list if they would like to rejoin it.
Launch:
To start, the waitlist will be filled by first come first serve comments (to determine the order).
The new tier will get access to joining the list first by commenting on the post, for which I will give 1 days notice for (this coming week) then the following day Giant Cuttlefish will get a post, then after that Pharaoh Cuttlefish will get a post to join.
After this post is made I will create the new tier so you can join it ahead of time!
Work on these slots will begin this month! :) π
Going Forward:
After this initial launch is over, you will be able to join the waitlist at the beginning of the month through commenting on a post I will schedule for the 5th of each month at the usual 2PM (as long as the current poll doesn't change that :P)
These posts for joining the waitlist will be available for all tiers above $6, and will be first come first serve for order of the new list additions, $10 tiers will be added to the bottom of the list first, then $6 tiers, in order of their comments.

βοΈ Other News: Flat Color Raffle Streams!
As well as offering a new tier, I'll now be offering Flat Color Raffle Streams! FCRS!!! LET'S GO :V
Details:
As per Patreon's TOS, these cannot be pay-to-enter raffles so will be public streams. However, only Patreon (all tiers) will get the heads up for when these streams will occur!
I cannot prevent non-Patrons from joining, however, only Patreon will know when to tune in, by an announcement in the Telegram Group Chat (dm @Teelatauntaun for the link), as well as a post I will make here to my page as I plan on doing them, with as much notice as I'm able to give!Flat Color Raffle Streams will take place 7-11PM AT only.
They may take place on any day of the week.
They may take place in the second half of a Patreon Flat N Chill Stream day if time allows.
You must tune in to my Piczel channel and be logged in to be able to join the raffle in the chat. It is an opt-in Raffle that looks like this in the chat:

So all you have to do is click "Join raffle", and when the timer (15 minutes) is up, a winner is drawn through Piczel!These will be Flat Color only. 1-2 characters, SFW or NSFW, to be completed in stream that day.
If you plan on joining a raffle, please have an idea (and payment) ready! I can contact you for details through Telegram, or through Piczel DM's if you do not have Telegram.
That's all! A big one... Take time to read it all, and feel free to ask any questions below! π§‘π¦β¨

It is the result of getting complaints for no matter how I choose to fill slots honestly. I understand! All you really gotta do is look out for announcement posts for when I open. Understanding how they function is definitely a bonus lol, but for all types of slots I fill, all that is required is to comment on a post usually at a certain time hahaha!

2024-09-05 23:32:38 +0000 UTCWell one has to remember that no matter the system, someone is always going to be upset. Itβs impossible to please everyone. Sepia does a fantastic job at trying to balance things for everyone as best as they can, while keeping their own sanity. Sometimes new ideas spring out of no where and the telegram chat brings out all sorts of ideas as well. I believe that is where this idea started. As long as we remain open and understand/sympathetic/empathetic, the processes can change or enhance over time. :)

2024-09-05 22:09:03 +0000 UTCThanks for implementing new ways for others to have more opportunity to get art from you than the prior system. Glad to hear that you took others considerations and lessen the aspect of folks being disappointed and being stung.
