YCH story offers - input needed
🕑 Added 2019-06-05 21:58:18 +0000 UTCI mentioned this a while back, but I wanna start offering YCH stories a bit more regularly! I've got a couple ideas written down, and I've been thinking about doing them differently than I used to. Originally I'd just post what the story would be about, name a price, and let the first person who claimed it have it. Going forward, however, I think it'd be more fun for both of us (as well as probably more rewarding 👀) to do it as anonymous Google Forms polls, asking a set of basic info regarding the story subject and then contact + payment info.
The important part is, though, that there'd be a base price on the story, and participants would get the option to name their own price of at least that base. I haven't yet decided if I wanna make the decision 100% highest-bidder-wins or not, but that does seem the most fair. Since you guys are Patrons (I'm thinking I'll mark this out on a specific tier, if it does keep on going) you'll get a flat reduction off the end price if you in: for example, if you put down $100 and win, you'd end up getting, say, $10 off of that. The base price and flat discount will change per story based on a couple different things, mostly how much input + control you'll have over the content.
What I really wanna know, though, is whether you guys think the current highest bid should be publicly posted or not. That'll help to drive up the income from the winner 👀👀 but at the same time, it'll dissuade people from tossing their name into the hat in case I decide not to choose the highest.
What do you think?
