OP Schedule Update: I know I said this weekend, but it will probably be Monday. Got a little too caught up in all the poll/ idea-crafting earlier in the week I think... Sorry about the delay once again. The Marth Finale will come out right after as July's High Tier release, and if I don't make it on time (July 31st) I'll send out the links to everyone early as usual. (In case you decide to drop tiers.) I'll post a more detailed schedule after I finish OP 10. PS: I'll close the first poll sometime on Tuesday. Should I narrow it down to Top 10? Top 5? Don't know if I should make this go three or four rounds. Just know that I'll probably end up making multiple of these stories so the top 3-5 placements matter too.

May Release Schedule:

Marth unlocks to all Tiers on Tuesday (the 7th)
Gyaru Alt Ending (most likely two parts released back to back)
Office Politics 6
PFK Ending
Office Politics 7 (monthly, but might release Marth 3 instead)
Marth Part 3 possibly (unlikely)

So the Gyaru Alternate finale is going to be a loooong chapter- at least 48 pages.
Things could go well and I could finish it by Friday- I'm certainly trying to, but I'm thinking I should split it into two 24 page chapters instead of releasing it all at once. I'd try and have the first 24 pages out by Thursday the 9th, and the rest 3-5 days later.

The problem is that this leaves me with too little time to finish the smaller Marth chapter which was supposed to be the monthly. So that leaves me with a tough choice of what to mark as the monthly high-tier release. Office Politics 7 makes the most sense, but I could push Office Politics 7 back and release Marth part 3 as the monthly instead? Either way, most people probably won't end up seeing OP 7 until the first week of June .

Idk though, it feels scummy to have what's going to be my main series going forward locked behind a high-tier paywall even if it's only for a week. Bad optics- it comes off as super greedy. Once again though, having a monthly reward really pushes me to get an extra comic out by the end of the month. I like the system even if I'm a little late with the monthly sometimes. So while this system may come off as strange or greedy, it does come with the end result of more content being put out for you faster.

(I know I sound like a broken record at this point when it comes to defending the monthly, but we have a lot of new faces here so I figured I'd give the speech again.)

Let me know what you think. I'm willing to make the PFK finale the monthly too if people really don't like the idea of making OP 7 the monthly. I'm very open to suggestions.

Info. on Marth TG, WIP batch images, and July Schedule.

EDIT: Marth is gonna be a midnight or later release probably.

(I recommend skipping down to the "IMPORTANT" section at least even if you normally skip text posts like these)

The Marth TG is coming along. It'll be the penultimate chapter, around 21-23 pages, and I'll shoot to end the story next month with another 20 images or so. Sorry btw, I never meant for this to be like an 90-page story haha. There isn't too much intrigue and the story is fairly lighthearted, but we'll see some good forced fem stuff in it coming up soon. I promise.

I'll release Marth either tomorrow or the next day, and I'll throw some WIP stuff out after. It won't be 50+ images like the last batch, but I should have some decent short stories, pitches, and previews to make up a 20-25 image post. I'll make it an early-access release like the last one just in case I'm unable to release another monthly chapter for July.

IMPORTANT:

As a reminder, I'll be taking a week "off" in July to set up a new computer and try and learn some stable diffusion stuff so we can get some more interesting styles in the stories. Plus, there's a possibility it'll drastically reduce the time it takes me to create content. Also, I'll be caught up with family stuff for the 4th of July weekend from Thusday-Monday probably.

Meaning that July is probably going to have at least one less chapter release than most other months, and it's possible the WIP stuff I release on Wednesday will be the only higher-tier, early-access release for the month. (I'll still release all-tier chapters during the month don't worry.)

Here's the (very tentative) schedule:

Marth Part 3           (7/1)
WIP Batch 4            (7/3)
Office Politics 9      (7/14?)
Office Politics 10    (7/21)
-Training week-
Marth Finale            (8/1?)

If it's looking especially bad or if I'm running behind, I might push the training to August instead. I'll make sure there's a decent amount of content for July don't worry.
