Update Post! October 4th (Patreon)

Good evening/morning/afternoon Patrons!

It's a new month and the final quarter of the year, and it's about time to annihilate this to-do list of ours. I've been feverishly working on the next 2 songs in addition to, as I'm sure you've seen, a lot of new Acoustic Shorts / Atmacoustics that have been in the queue. You can keep expecting lots of these throughout the coming months.

Before I get to our upcoming songs, let's talk about the next drawing. I will be moving this month's drawing up a few days to Monday, October 8th. The reason for this is that today is my wife and I's anniversary! ...but she has to work today, so we're celebrating it over the weekend. Since I'll be busy most of the weekend, it's most efficient for myself to move it to the beginning of the week, so the drawing will be on October 8th around 3:00 PM US Central Time. The request list will be updated before the weekend is over, with the current entry list posted shortly after. If you're Tier 3+ and need to add or make any changes to your list, you've got a few days to do it, so be sure to leave a comment over on the official request list post!

That said, let's see what we have coming up for October:

• October: Pressing Pursuit ~ Cornered (Apollo Justice ~ Ace Attorney)
• October: Tor (Iji)
• October: Decisive (Ogre Battle 64)
• October: NES Medley #6
• October: Halloween Special
• TBA: Game Boy Medley
• TBA: Sunset Heroes (God Hand)
• TBA: Wizpig (Diddy Kong Racing)
• TBA: Circus Tent (Shining Force)
• TBA: Title / Battle Theme (Magi-Nation)
• TBA: Battle With Mortis (Comix Zone)
• TBA: Battle 2 (Romancing SaGa 3)
• TBA: Side-Quests Volume 2 (Song list is on the bottom of the request list)

You're probably wondering what we're going to be doing for Halloween this year. As we've been doing annually, I will be making a Halloween Poll for you all after this month's drawing, where everyone will be able to vote on what the Halloween Special will be. I will be using this as my handpicked request list choice for the month, so all of the poll entries (which will be four) will be from the Patreon Request List. Something to keep in mind for those looking to update their list this month. ;)

I have already been working on Pressing Pursuit and Tor, and am expecting to have both of them complete before the end of next week, which should put us in position to also have Decisive (Ogre Battle 64) and NES Medley done before the Halloween special. If everything goes perfectly, perhaps I can also squeeze in the Game Boy Medley before Halloween.

While I do know what the 'April Fools Special' for this year is (or, was intended to be), with so much on the list at the moment, I've removed it for the time being. If I'm not able to get it together before the end of the year, we'll just do a double special on April 1st next year. It'll be worth the wait, I promise. :)

I'll keep you all posted on Side-Quests 2 progress, and while I have worked on those songs a bit, I've moved things like the current to-do list and owed acoustic shorts to the top of the priority list. I'm hoping to either end the year with SQ2 or bring in 2019 with it. Once I get the to-do list down to about 4 confirmed songs or so, it will become top priority.

That's all for now! It may seem like I have a lot to do, but I'm confident I can clear out the to-do list at least before the year is over. I'll see you for the drawing on Monday, thank you for being amazing! :D

TL;DR: Next drawing is Monday, Oct. 8th, around 3:00 PM US Central. Next songs up are Pressing Pursuit, Tor, and Decisive (OB64). Halloween Poll coming after this month's drawing. Thanks for being awesome! :)
