Fair enough @UncleVT , but I believe you agree with me saying that F95 would increase the amount of exposure a game gets, greatly increasing its patreons as a result. These are people supporting because they want to support a good product, not because they have to. @WaltS and @DrFog I would really like it if you told me what I don't know about what I'm talking about. I read the latest pages of the thread, and CheekyGimp wrote;

"And bear in mind that one of the factors of there not being a December release was because of the piracy in November. I was so pissed off about the immediate piracy that I stopped working on the game for over a week. "

This january delay, the "reward scheme" as people said, I said I can get behind. Please read what I write before you start touting your horn.
You quoted me, so you must be right! I love a bit of quotation tennis, so I'll serve :)

I hope you also read this line.
"I also had a lot of RL stuff to sort out and that was the major reason, but the extra one-week definitely added the final nail for a December release. "
Hopefully you did, it came pretty soon after the line you quoted.

You said this:
"Delaying a month release because of piracy"

Rather than wait for a reply from @WaltS or @DrFog, I'll give you what you're looking for....
You are wrong!
Now go grab a dictionary and look up the words "Major" and "reason".
And a little maths puzzler for you: 1 month > "over a week"
And before you go "touting" your own horn, I'm just having a little fun (I'm in a mischievous mood), so don't get your knickers in a twist. And please don't cancel your patronage.... Oh Wait.....:unsure:

Man...just stop the walls of text and get back to giving me more Monica and Jenna. Sheesh.
I like to take a break from writing every now and then with.... some more writing.
But you are genuinely one of my "bosses", so I'll do as I'm told and you won't hear another peep from me tonight.
Ignatz has spoken... And so it shall be done!
And to confirm: Yes, I am off my meds tonight! :devilish:

Well, you are supposed to put (sic) after a quote of an incorrect word.

6: Since this forum began, I have seen countless messages (here and via DMs) from people telling me that multiple things I am doing (items such as this proposal, some of my responses, some of my game choices, etc.) are "going to cost me Patrons" or "going to piss off my patrons". All of these comments usually have one thing in common - they are almost always written by Non-Patrons. Please don't try to second guess the patrons, they are well capable of representing themselves.
yeah i don't understand where the entitlement comes from.
"i pay a tiny whiney fraction of your revenue, so i'm practically your boss!"?
it's not like you are the boss of every police officer, just because you pay taxes.

do what you think is right. seeing on what you already achieved, that can't be too wrong.

Kind of shocked at this point that anyone would not have charge upfront turned on
I always thought charge upfront and per release (if update takes more than a month) should be the default for gaming devs. This would ensure the patrons are willing to donate, and the devs have incentive to not take too long with their updates.

I usually think devs missing monthly updates time to time is okay, but there are devs out there that started with one week late, then became two weeks, then suddenly a month late and turned into 5 updates per year while collecting 12 monthly donation.

Back to the game, I am very much looking forward to see what will happen to Jenna in her storyline.

Just because the charge is monthly doesn't mean an update has to be monthly. That misses the point of being a "patron". The support is for the creator, not the creation. That is the classical model of patronage.

I really enjoy this game and am anxiously awaiting the next installment. I'm sure the dev realizes that some of his present and future patrons are because of this site, so probably shouldn't be so sensitive.

Half agree. The support is indeed for the creator, but the reason of supporting is the creation. While monthly charge doesn't mean the update has to be monthly, there needs to be some sort of reasonable timeline to be acceptable before I'd consider such practice as milking instead.

So... in all this drama, any news when the next update will come? Whether it will be delayed for a couple days here or not?

the game will be released for 10$ patreons today, Cheecky asked the leaker to postpone the pirated version for 4/5 days promising extra "non-patreon" stories as a reward.
Hence if Cheeky plan works we will get ep. 9 on the 15th, otherwise as soon as someone post it. nobody knows
