Regarding Requests (Patreon)

I feel I need to clarify how requests are processed, so I'm writing this message.

First and foremost, as stated in the monthly request list,
the criteria for selection is whether I have an idea for it or not,
but fairness takes the utmost priority.

Unfortunately, if your request is chosen,
then the chances of winning again will be very low for the next 2~4..5,6 times(months).
In most cases, those who got selected for that month won't get selected next month.
There are simply too many people applying.

It's very hard to accommodate everyone's requests practically.

The selection process for requests is organized as follows:

The reason your request may not have been selected is primarily due to fairness.
Priority is given to those who haven't won in a while or
new applicants to ensure a level playing field.
This is often why even though there are many requests
I genuinely like, they might get pushed back.

I apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.

Then you might ask: why not restrict the number of Heavy Wraith tier members?

Well, Heavy Wraiths tier is more of a support rather than a confirmed reward,
which is explicitly labeled as such.

The number of request winners is limited, but I can draw as many as I can afford,
so I haven't imposed restrictions.

I also considered creating a new tier with a limited number of slots and  eliminating the winning system altogether.

However, the idea of having to draw any requests no matter what, felt burdensome,
so I'm still thinking about this idea.

In conclusion, when applying requests, please be  aware that there's a very high chance you'll receive a drawing in the end of the month style,
unless you're a first-time requester or haven't won in a while.

I'm aware of this and I'm working to improve the quality when I draw requests.
