Hello everyone! We interrupt our regularly scheduled programming for a special announcement: we’re bringing back our reward tiers! Although we had also planned to go back to a monthly subscription model, it looks like Patreon has made it so that we have to stick with a per-creation model. No matter. If you’re already a Patreon subscriber, there’s absolutely nothing for you to do. You’ll remain at your current tier and gain access to the rewards that tier offers—check out the show notes for details. And if you’d like to increase your pledge level to unlock higher-tier rewards, be sure to check those out, too. Find it all at https://www.patreon.com/esotericrp/membership.
