Lost all of our milestones.
We just lost our last milestone. Meaning there will be no more request streams each month.
I'm not sure what happened exactly... maybe it was the change from monthly to per page.. I dunno.. You guys tell me what you'd prefer. Monthly? Or per page? Which is easier to follow? Would you be opposed to us changing it up again? What kind of rewards do you guys want?

REGARDLESS.. your answers have been heard... and NEXT month I will be changing it back to monthly.. and reverting it back to it's original form.
You also have to take into account people's monthly caps that they set. It SAYS $347 per page.. but really.. it's only for the FIRST page.. and then afterwards its like $100 for the second page.. and then maybe $50 for the third.
Ah, right. The monthly caps. I completely forgot about that option. *Nods* Yeah, that certainly makes things considerably more complicated when it comes to figuring out the Per Page financials and setting up milestones. x_X
If you're putting out 3-4 pages a month at 347 a page you're clearing $1000-$1300 a month.
*Whistles* I didn't think there'd be that much of a dip! I know I personally prefer the Monthly system over the Per Page system, as it keeps things systematic and consistant. Considering how often the two of you update UberQuest, that's about three times a month, if not four? *Looks at the income* That's actually about $1,000 a month as it is now. I don't know how much was being made before on the Monthly system, but if the two amounts are close, I'd consider changing the milestones to reflect that.
well, the scaling on per month and per page is a lot different. I've not myself changed it since the change and thus stay at 1/page, 4/month but.. yeah. Unless i'm mistaken, goal sums themselves were not changed, right? so 4x347=1388/month compared to 1x347/month (or whatever it was before the dip)
Honestly, I prefer a monthly system a lot more.
Well, you're CLOSE, anyhow... :D
Rationally speaking you didn't scale your milestones to your payment set up. Even though we are getting billed per page, realistically you'll only get the first say 400 on the first page you post. If you add them up you'll probably be making roughly 800-900 per month if you don't factor in the monthly limits some people might put. Your maximum was $1000 per month, which sounds big, but when you changed the payment system you made that milestone harder to reach. $1000 Per page would be expecting $2000-$4000 a month roughly not factoring in the monthly limits. So you kind of stunted your own milestones here... Since us patrons don't get charged til the end of the month, I suggest you go back to the monthly system anyway if you don't wanna have to do the maths to compensate. It'd be easier on you as well because you'll at the very least see your payments in one lump sum towards the end of the month instead of hope you'll get pages out fast enough.
Either way is fine by me, I've seen it done both ways
