New Discord server, and opening up election guides (Patreon)

We're now less than two months out from the Queensland state election, and the ACT election. So it seemed about the right time to unlock those election guides for everyone to read.

But while that means two less exclusive benefits for Patreon donors, I'm launching something else that I think Patreon members will appreciate.

Discord is a chat app which is used by the communities of quite a few podcasts, amongst other uses. I've now launched a Discord for the Tally Room, as an exclusive benefit for people who donate $5 or more per month.

The Discord server has already launched with over 30 members, and if you're a member you can sign up too. There are channels to discuss elections in each Australian jurisdiction and overseas. I'm going to be using this server in place of some of the open threads that have proliferated on the Tally Room website.

It seems the easiest way to do this is to create a Discord account, then in Patreon go to Settings, then Connected Apps, and connect Discord to Patreon.

If you're a member, please go sign up and check it out!
