Quick question - GMTK and syndication (Patreon)
Content
I've been approached by IGN, and they want to chat to me about two ideas: 1) running a couple existing episodes on the IGN platform and 2) creating some unique content for them
Now I don't think I want to do the latter. I don't need IGN to make stuff - you guys make that possible and together we have complete authorial control. Also, I don't really want videos that don't go on the channel - I love how it's all easily found on one YouTube page.
Like, did you know that kaptainkristian did an episode on Spider Man? Probably not because it got buried in IGN's videos https://youtu.be/6fO1sY_Dg-M
As for syndicating some existing episodes on IGN - what do you think about that? For me, it sounds okay. One of the many awesome things about Patreon is that I don't really mind if the videos aren't watched on YouTube.
Like, if people freeboot them on Facebook that's kinda fine because it just reaches more people who might then search me out to subscribe or even support on Patreon. It's not like I'm missing out on ad dollars.
So it could potentially bring more fans, subscribers, and supporters.
But I'd like to hear your thoughts on this. Wouldn't do it without feeling like I have your support. So any concerns or anything else welcome!

Also, keep it under your hat for now. I'm trusting you with this!
