Using Stack Points for Snapbacks and Stream Upgrades (Patreon)

Hey there, Oxdarock here!

People have asked me about this and now I will finally implement this. Starting from today, I will be allowing the use of Stack points for Lusty Lamp Snapback pictures as well as Draw Stream Upgrades. For those who don’t know, Stack points is a system I developed that awards points that can be used for extra perks based on the lifetime amount a patron pledges (1 point per $20). I keep track of all patrons stack points on the Stack List.

With the release of the recent compilation album released last Monday, I feel that I’ve come a pretty long ways with the Lusty Lamp Snapbacks, so I’m gonna pull back on how often I work on them. I’ll still do voting polls and the like, but I’ll probably do them every three to four months. However, I’ll be allowing patrons to use Stack Points to get me to draw Snapbacks sooner and without relying on me or voting polls to decide. 

The way it will work is like this: I will draw a Snapbacks picture for any character that has at least 3 Stack Points. In the event that multiple pictures have Stack points, then I’ll choose which character to use via the usual methods (my favorite or Wheel-kun). Adding more Stack points will also influence who I choose first, however only 3 are needed to guarantee that I start on a new one. 

Check the LL Snapbacks Point Sheet to see which characters are available. 

Before I explain how Stack Points will work for Stream Upgrades, I’d like to lay out my priority totem pole when it comes to Patreon content.

• Comic Work (Most Important)
• Lusty Lamp Exclusives (Lusty Lamp Guests, etc)
• Stack Service+Snapbacks
• Draw Streams and Stream Upgrades (Least important)

Upgrading sketches from Draw Streams will work in a similar manner: I’ll upgrade pictures with at least 3 Stack points (additional points will influence who I choose first). You can choose pictures from any of the Draw Stream batches that I’ve completed or are currently working on. However, as shown above, anything regarding Draw Streams are very low in the totem pole in terms of priority, so even if a picture has 3 Stack points, it still won't be that high up on my To-Do list. To bump a picture to the top of the list (meaning I drop what I’m doing to finish it), it needs 7 Stack points.

I’ll add pictures to the Stream Upgrades Point List as people use points for them.

Well, that’s all regarding Stack Points for Snapbacks and Stream Upgrades. I’ll be adding this to the FAQ page soon. If you have any questions, please message me or leave a comment below.
