While I like that idea, Patreon has some specific rules against raffles and contests, because it could be subject to online gambling laws. Until they change their policy, raffles and the like are going to have to be out. :)

Well, I was thinking that if you had the free space during a month, maybe you hold some kind of random drawing from all your patrons, or maybe even some kind of small contest, and whoever won that month would be allowed a request picture as long as it fits within what you're willing to do, and to keep it fair someone who won the previous month wouldn't be allowed to enter to try and win two in a row. I figured it'd be a neat idea, especially the small contest thing, to maybe give something a bit extra back to patrons while also getting everyone involved in something that could be a lot of fun.

I'd still like to hear it! There's no guarantee I can fit it in, but we'll never know if you don't tell me. :)

I had an idea I was considering to throw out, but now that I think about it you've got a lot on your plate as it is, and I'd hate to suggest something that might be an extra unnecessary addition to the workload. ^^;

Ah, well that's good to hear. There is nothing wrong with toning back the amount you have to do Chibi. Just one of your pieces is enough to brighten most people's day. You're fantastic :D

Chibi Biscuit

Oh, they were totally understanding - I just felt bad, and the whole coordination piece, even though people were flexible and really cool about it, it was just really hard for me.

Chibi Biscuit

I could probably find a way to make that work! I'd need to see where I'd put it on the rewards scale. :D

While I was completely fine with you having to leave the private streams for a few moments, I cannot speak for everyone else. I completely understand :)

Chibi Biscuit

The big problem I was encountering with the private streams was coordinating four hours of free time. Like with a normal stream, I don't feel bad if I have to get up in the middle of it and disappear for 20 minutes or an hour... But since the private streams were a premium thing, I felt like I had to have that time exclusively allocated to it. I may try setting up traditional commissions (with priority given to Patrons) or figure out some kind of system.

Wolx Edwards

Well you know I'd love to see those private streams come back :) I miss them. Other than that, you could always offer smaller commission of single characters for example
