Restructuring my Patreon: Your Thoughts?
🕑 Added 2018-09-12 14:06:11 +0000 UTC Hey guys. I have some (kind of bad) news but I think we can fix things so that everyone's happy. I got an email today from Patreon asking me to remove the Giveaways from my Patron rewards and to not host private giveaways on Patreon. Apparently this goes against Patreon's terms of use because of various state gambling laws and the possibility of fraudulent activity. In order to safely host giveaways, they have to be open to the public and not just patrons.While this is upsetting, I've thought of some alternatives and I'd like your input and ideas as well. Here's what I've thought of so far:
I could host the giveaways publicly on gleam just like I do for my YouTube giveaways. This means anyone with the link can enter, meaning it is technically public - but I'll just share the link here with you. (Do you think that crosses the line too much?)
Another idea would be to host a competition every month and the winner gets the prize. For example, it could be a crafting competition where you would send me photos or a short video of some craft or replica you've created and I'd judge them and select a winner.
Other than that I don't really know.
Additionally, I would love to have more tiers and rewards here on Patreon for you. What would you guys like in terms of rewards?

I am partial to the second idea, though I know the first will be easier for you.
Just a thought.. you could have 'Muggle of the Month' profile post where the randomly chosen muggle from your patreon list would be the monthly winner and they would tell a little about themself (only the winner posts their about me), that persons 'reward' would be the monthly prize.
