A video and a long (6 hour+) group stream to drive support would be the way forward, I think. If you look at what the Kinda Funny guys did to get their animated series funded, you have a blueprint for success - and they were asking for far, far more.
$2k should be easily achievable, but they also need to give a clear message. What sort of coverage would we get for $40k? Which events? Pre-show, post show, or just during? Special event podcast? Guests? Interviews? Give us something to really get hyped about.
Yeah good idea, a stream just before patreon pay day would probably be a big help. What with E3 excitement and the ticking clock to get the money in time.
I'm actually surprised they haven't even made a Patreon post about the new milestones, or Damiani's return. If you didn't catch the group stream, you'd not know anything about them. I guess they probably discuss them on the podcast too, but that's only available for the $5 and up backers so far, and I've not watched it yet since I'm saving it for FFXIV Dailies background noise this evening. And you know that there's a segment of viewers that only watch the edited shows and podcasts. I guess Cup of Jones might be that, but we'll see. That it's gone up nearly $1k without any formal written announcement is amazing in itself.
I agree about the patron post, but maybe they are after new pledges and assume only current pledgers go on that page? Either way I think they should do it. And they talk about Damiani's return on the podcast but only really briefly mention the new milestones.
Awesome pod. So glad Damiani is back. He gives that RAW UNIQUE spin the rest of the allly are too puss
yeah its great having damiani back, he was on great form as usual
