📌 Pinned Post / Page Introduction (PLEASE READ)

Hi my Patrons!!

Recently, we’ve had a lot of new members, and I noticed that some people were confused about how rewards work on my page.That’s totally my fault for not explaining it clearly before, so today I want to make a detailed post about how this page works, especially how rewards are distributed.

Quick Summary (Please read first!)

• Rewards are released monthly• To receive the new reward, you must be subscribed BEFORE release• If you join late, you will NOT receive the new version• After ~2 weeks, the reward will return as a poster (archive/store https://dryskeletonz.itch.io)• Seasonal system applies to archived rewards only

⚠️ Important Rule

You must be subscribed BEFORE a reward is released to receive the new reward.

If you join after release, you will NOT receive that reward.

However, the reward will return later (after ~2 weeks) as a poster in the archive/store.

1️⃣ Seasonal System

Rewards on my page work by season, not by month.

Each season (Spring / Summer / Autumn / Winter) has its own reward set.

When a season is active:

All archived rewards from that same season (past years) are unlocked.

Rewards from other seasons remain locked.

Locked rewards will re-open when their season returns.

Example:If you join during Spring, you can access all previous Spring rewards.Summer / Autumn / Winter rewards will stay locked until their season becomes active.

I also note the months when each season changes in the collections.

2️⃣ Important Rule About New Reward Releases

⚠️ This is very important. Please read carefully.

To receive a newly released reward, your membership must be active and fully paid before the reward release date.

If you join after a reward has already been released and sent out, you will not receive that reward, even if the season is still active.

Seasonal access applies to archived rewards only.It does NOT apply retroactively to newly released rewards.

3️⃣ Late Join Cases

If you joined late due to a payment issue or technical error, you may DM me with proof.

I will review the situation case by case.

However, approval is not guaranteed.

4️⃣ Tier Upgrade Rule

If you were already subscribed before a reward was sent, you may upgrade your tier (Smol/Mid → Bigger) to receive the Bigger Bone extras, even after the send date.

Your payment must remain active.

This only applies to members who were already subscribed before the release.

After approximately 2 weeks (or longer), the reward will be added to the Bigger Bone archive as a poster.

At that point, active Bigger Bone members can access it through the archive when its season is active.

This does not change the original release rule.Members who joined after the release date will not receive the original release version.

5️⃣ Why This System Exists

This system keeps things:

Fair for long-term supporters

Organized across seasons

Sustainable for me as a creator

Thank you for understanding and supporting my work.

[NEW] 6️⃣ Itch.io Store Release

Around the same time that the poster version is added to the Bigger Bone archive, the reward will also become available for purchase on my itch.io store.

About the Products

Each reward will have two versions:

Basic Version:Includes the main artwork and alternate versions (for those who only want the final artwork).

Full Version:Includes all artwork, alternate versions, and behind-the-scenes content.

Pricing System

The price may change depending on whether the season is currently active or not.

Active Season PriceBasic: $12Full: $15

Inactive Season PriceBasic: $17Full: $18

Please note: Prices may vary depending on the workload of each reward. Some packs may be slightly higher or lower depending on the amount of content.

This system allows people who missed the original release to still access the artwork later.

About Character Suggestions & Selection

I usually don’t pick characters by myself.Instead, I let members suggest characters every month.

Only Mid Bone and Bigger Bone members can suggest characters.

After a new reward is released, I will open a character suggestion post.

Suggestions will stay open for 2–3 days, then I will close the post and gather all submitted characters.

There is few simple rules about character suggestions:

RULES:

Please suggest 1–2 characters (shipping is allowed).

Only character names the content will be decided by me. (In the future, I may let you vote through a poll!)

Please include the series/game they are from.

If multiple people suggest the same character(s), they will be counted as one entry.

Each person may comment only once. Additional comments will not be considered.

🏁 Bob Race (Character Selection Game)

This is my favorite part

All characters suggested by members will be added into my game called “Bob Race.”Each of my baby Bobs will wear a name tag based on the suggested characters.

When the race starts:

The race usually lasts 10–20 minutes or longer to keep it fun and tense

All Bob speeds are completely random

Speed changes during the race are also random

There is no cheating or manual control

How speed / time change look:

From the race:

The first 4 Bobs to reach the finish line will win

These 4 winners will move on to the final voting stage

If you curious how game will look you can check out the race from my Youtube channel here every race i always start live streaming here!https://www.youtube.com/@dryskeleton6843

Final Vote

The final vote will be a poll (Only Bigger Bone members can vote)

Voting lasts 2–3 days

The character with the most votes will be selected as the next reward character!
