Hi, I've decided to rework the merch tier on Patreon.

It's all being moved to my Storenvy shop, where I can better manage shipping prices and orders. It's also only $10 before shipping! 

As for current merch tier patrons:

You do not have to end your merch-tier pledge at this moment. Current patrons will also be receiving this merch package if they have pledged $12 or more any time throughout April, May, or June. Afterwards, I'll be ending the tier alltogether and replacing it with something different. You'll still have access to this Patreon, its posts, and the Discord when the tier ends.

If you aren't happy with the idea, I can refund you for any amount you've pledged to me in the past.

If you are happy, and would like others to know, you can share the tweet I've made about it here^^ 

The merch package is expected to start shipping some time in June, thank you so much for being supportive and patient despite the difficulties and setbacks behind all of this. Please stay safe and hygenic.

Oh...I kindof liked automatically receiving an envelope of shrimpule stickers or a card or whatever, every other month; it's a thing I look forward to. But I'd rather not have to make sure I remember, every other month, to order the new one - assuming new stuff still gets made every other month. If it's a matter of "making new merch every other month is hard", or some other fundamental difficulty in making all this stuff, well, that's understandable. But if the creation of new merch will continue, and the only difficulty is e.g. tracking orders, it seems like, surely there's a way of signing people up for automatic orders or something, that fixes your problem without making it more difficult for people to get your merch? What's the problem you experience with the way things are done now?

2024-06-23 17:17:20 I realized that some people might still like the way it was organized before, so I haven't gotten rid of the merch tier, just unpublished it so that new people can't sign up at that price point any longer. It'll stay the same for you 🙂. The problem was more that I felt odd about people giving me $24 or even $36 between periods of time where they wouldn't receive anything at all. Also, in my mind the merch always felt like it was worth $12 (or even less) and the model was a bit confusing compared to other people's merch tier models where one transaction would equal one set of merch being received. I guess it wasn't really an issue after all and can still undo the decision, but for now you can stay in this tier and it'll all stay the same. I might redo the merch tier in the future for a lesser cost. Thank you for asking😇
