Newsletter Subscription

Hello Patrons! 

Earlier today I connected up Patreon to Mailchimp – the service I use to run the weekly Sly Flourish newsletter. 

I didn't realize it would do so but it ended up subscribing every patron of Sly Flourish who wasn't subscribed to the newsletter automatically. I didn't intend for that to happen. I just hoped it would help me keep track of which people were part of both lists so I don't spam patrons with too many duplicate announcements.

When this connection happened it sent out a "Welcome" message to you which you probably found confusing. I'm sorry for that.

If you don't want to be part of the Sly Flourish newsletter, I completely understand and you should feel free to unsubscribe guilt free. That said, the newsletter is a great way to get my weekly D&D articles sent right to your inbox so I hope you'll give it a shot.

If you were already a subscriber, nothing should change.

I'm sorry again for the confusion.

Mike

I would encourage anyone that hasn’t been getting it to give it a try before unsubscribing.

No need to apologise, there is nothing, after all, more joyous than someone else's mighty IT cockup. Keep up the good work :)

Since I'm in both I don't think I received an extra invite. But all is fair in the learning of new tools, specially when testing interactions between two that can't be done in a quality testing environment and have to be done live.

I'm a current newsletter subscriber and patron, so where's *my* duplicate "Welcome" message? ;)

Jeez, Mike. Didn't you know that being gaming content generator means you have to be a technology master too? 😂😂
