October! Pinup voting here!

Welcome to month 10 of the year! Rane and Miko removed, I'm working on Miko's image now, and I'll hold off on sending out the ZIPs til it's done, so just sit tight a bit if you can! Will probably be sent out anywhere between the 2nd-5th. I'm curious if I should try and do something special for Halloween this month, not sure, but if there's any ideas I'll try and give em consideration. I put Lia into the open OC slot, why not? And Florence, from the webcomic Freefall, who I did get permission for, but Mark Stanley, the creator, did kindly ask for nothing explicit and so like the TwoKinds characters, will be kinda like that if chosen.


=================
How voting works:
I make a roster of characters to choose from for my primary artwork each month. Each level of pledge gets a different number of votes, and you guys pick what I end up doing! Rules are...
=================

Votes:
-The roster keeps it's vote count from month to month.
-1$ Patreons get one(1) vote to spend. 5$ get two(2), 10$ get three(3), 25$ get five(5).
-Multiple votes can be on one character, or split up between several.
-You can vote after it ends, but it won't be added til after the winner is decided.
-Votes only count if your pledge processed that month. If your pledge is declined, I will put the votes "on hold", and add them later if the pledge goes through. Likewise, If the pledge doesn't go through, the votes aren't counted. I check all votes for number and pledge accuracy.
-If your pledge is worth more votes than you use, say a 10$ tier patron casting only 1 vote, I will automatically assign all 3 votes to that one vote. If they vote "1 for character A and 1 for character B", then I will pick myself either A or B to receive the unassigned 3rd available vote.

Add/Remove Character Rules:
-Fandom and Other OCs will be removed when won.
-FK OCs will go on a cooldown and I'll decide when to put them back up.

Slots:
-$5+ patrons can spend one(1) vote to suggest new characters in the comments section. I can turn down a character suggestion, but please don't take it personally! I will only do this when I -really- can't see myself enjoying the subject or for some other reason I reserve the right to.
-'Artist's Choice' and 'FK OCs' slots won't follow strikes, and instead are added/removed as I deem desired or necessary. They could be other's OCs, fandom characters that haven't been suggested that I'd love to do... etc. A free-form nomination category. Can still be characters supporters suggest!

Strikes:
-If a character receives less than 3 people voting on them each month, they will get a strike.
-Three(3) strikes total removes them from the roster. They can be re-nominated, and if accepted, will then be put at the end of the current waitlist.
-Passing 75 votes nulls the strike system for that character.
