TESTING A NEW WAY OF DOING THINGS?

Hey guys!

This one is gonna be a bit of a long one but it's important so bear with me!

So, for a little while now but especially over my mini break that I took this week, I've been thinking about the schedule that I have and wondering whether it's actually the best thing for this channel and for me/my work flow.

I've been going back and forth on whether or not it would be better to switch things up and rather than have days assigned to different groups/artists, I instead have a select 2-4 shows/series' etc. that I focus on at a time.

There are many reasons why I've been debating this but the main one is simply that, I've noticed how difficult it is to actually stick to that schedule when there are times that I have to take breaks and days off here and there and I end up missing chunks out of the schedule. And that's not the end of the world I know, but 1. What's the point of having a schedule if I can barely stick to it? and 2. It feels like poop every time I can't stick to it and that's uh not fun. Like I said, there are other reasons but this is the big one!

SO I've been thinking about this a lot and... I can't come to a decision. And I could simply ask your guys' opinion now BUT how can any of us really form an opinion when we haven't experienced the alternative?

Which brings me to this poll. We're gonna be running a test on this channel for the next month or two.

Below, in the poll options, are all of the current things that I'm watching as part of my schedule. My plan, is for you guys to vote amongst yourselves for which ones you want to see me focus on for the next month or so. Depending on the results of the vote, the top two or three (plus one or two extras of my own choosing) will be what I primarily watch during this time.

There won't be any set days for these things, my aim will simply be to watch AT LEAST one a week. This will obviously allow me to get through shows/series' much quicker and if I decide to continue this format, there will be polls each time one ends for you guys to choose the next thing.

A quick couple notes regarding the "winning top two or three" from this poll: 

• If Produce 101 & Youth With You 2 end up being the top two in the votes, I will only choose the winning one and the third highest voted simply because of the length of the episodes.
• Also, in a similar vein, it'll be two or three depending on the length of the shows/series' chosen. For example, if the top three are all 20-40 minute long things, then I'll choose the top three, whereas if the top two are both an hour+ long then it'll just be those two.
• The extras that I choose to do will be ones that I specifically really want to watch and ones that allow for the groups that don't typically get lots of votes to still have their moment to shine

Another note is that I will still be maintaining the Variety Tuesday polls regardless of what the results are here. That's kind of a separate entity!

I hope this all makes sense and you understand why I'm trying it. As said, this is just a test, we'll see how things go for the next month or two and if it doesn't work as well then we'll go back to the schedule.

As always with this channel, everything is a bit of an experiment and I'm constantly having to try out new things to make sure I'm doing what's best for my own ability to work well and also put out content that you all are gonna enjoy.

It should also be noted that, as is the case with the schedule now, this obviously won't be the only content that I put out on Patreon. There's still gonna be albums and live stages and other little series'. And this is all including the groups that are in the schedule (for example, I'm still gonna be doing Gfriend and Monsta X albums every so often). This is just gonna be the standard stuff that happens every week :)

Okay, if you read all that, thank you so much. Feel free to let me know your thoughts in the comments but like... don't be rude about it if you don't like it. This is just an experiment lmao.

In the meantime, happy voting!
