Your Thoughts on Reward Bundle Delivery (Patreon)

Hi everyone,

We've been having think about what to do. 

You've probably seen the posts about Dropbox, and how it no longer works for our distribution of rewards to everyone. We wanted to make sure that rewards for June are available to you all, so have uploaded the files as attachments to Patreon posts, but it's very messy, and very far from a perfect system. It's also limited in that it's only available for a short time, and that doesn't work for everyone.

So, as suggested by various people's comments (both in recent posts and the past), we'd like your thoughts on using DrivethruRPG for the delivery of your reward maps.

How it would work

Each month the maps for your reward bundles would go onto DrivethruRPG. We'd then send you codes that would let you add the maps to your Drivethru account for free. You'd then be able to download the maps whenever, plus they'd stay on your account permanently. 

In order for DTRPG to host the maps in this way, they would have to also be products on sale there. So, that means they'd no longer be Patreon-exclusive for their first year. Of course, it will still always be much better value to be part of the Patreon and get the maps in your $5 or $8 pledge.

We'd also work through the backcatalogue, providing people with links to the maps they qualify to get (e.g. if you were a Patron in May 2019, we'd make sure you got a link to the May 2019 maps)

So, we'd like your thoughts on this. This poll is not a deciding vote; we're just using it to gauge opinion. 

The question is:

Do you want your rewards delivered via DrivethruRPG where they will stay on your account?

Vote YES if you like the idea, and would be happy to have your maps via DTRPG

Vote NO if you don't like the idea. If you vote no we'd appreciate hearing why, as we're trying to find the best solution.

Update - just to be clear, there's no option to stick with Dropbox due to recent issue. 

Thanks!
