Announcement: Bonus Pairing Request Changes!

Added 2024-07-06 19:47:00 +0000 UTC

★ hey everybody! pengy here making a separate post copying the announcement regarding changes to next season's bonus pairing system, for maximum visibility! ★

Starting with the next round of polls, I'm going to be modifying the Bonus Pairings so that instead of requesting a full pairing, you instead request a single character or creature to feature as a main character. So, instead of requesting "Succubus vs. Larya", you would request "Succubus", and "Succubus" might be pitted against "Laca", "Goblin Maid" and "Thriae" in the final poll. If Succubus wins, I'd then have some freedom with who the Succubus goes up against and what kind of story it is.

This is an experiment! I've been wanting more variety in the creatures I write, and I've also gotten the occasional sense that people sometimes input major characters like Senya and Larya as much as placeholders as for their own sake. It might also encourage more people to make their requests, since the request becomes much more broad. I want to see if this makes "Bonus Pairings" (they'll need a new name if it sticks) easier for me to keep up with.

(If this isn't to your liking, but you've already paid, you're free to request a refund for this month! I know it may feel like less "value" for Bonus Pairing requests, although I hope that's not how it is in practice.)
