Scolded :(
Added 2018-10-17 13:04:51 +0000 UTCBad news: Just found out that the monthly merchandise giveaways are against Patreon's Terms of Service. This reward has been discontinued.
Good news: New rewards will be introduced very, very soon.
Thanks for understanding.

Fairly new Patreon member for Swindled and, based on the updated McDonalds Monopoly episode, I’m scrolling through old posts and downloading what I haven’t heard. Saw this and am supporting not for a gift, but am aware of the difficulties of raffles - the legalities I’d which are unknown by many. Paying for a game of chance is considered gambling in many states and subject to gaming regulations. I know it’s a bummer, but I’m impressed Patreon has this high standard.

2018-10-18 15:12:56 +0000 UTCI think it has something to do with gambling laws. It’s all good. We’ll figure something out.

2018-10-18 05:23:43 +0000 UTCWow, that is pretty absurd! I would have shot them an email back and said actually you need to revise your terms of service. Does Patreon get any part of the money I pay to subscribe to you? If so I will cancel it and pay you the money directly via Paypal or something...
