Thanks for the great year in review! It's really nice to see a roundup all in one place, and congratulations to the team on all that you've accomplished this year (and in the last five years).

One question I have is about this planned merch and the financial state of Dappervolk: without asking for financial clarity, many of those merchandising options are pretty one-off expensive items, like plushies, enamel pins, zines/artbooks (if you're binding them). I also have a lot of existing plushies, enamel pins, and zines. Would you consider running polls on most-wanted merch items by the playerbase, if you're planning on doing merchandise?
I think many of us already wonder if DV is staying afloat or is planning to close on any given day, because the staff is pretty far removed from daily conversations and regular updates. So to hear "we're planning merch and collabs and we've already decided what merch it's going to be!" is really random.
