The Lingo
Artypot has its own vocabulary. Here's everything you need to know.
The Pot
A fan-created, crowdfunded request aimed at a specific Summoned One. Fans place votives into a pot to signal what they want The Summoned to make. If The Summoned completes the project, the pot pays out.
The Summoned
A creator or entity who has claimed their Artypot profile. Once summoned, they can receive payouts from pots dedicated to their work, communicate directly with fans, and confirm or reject completed projects.
The Votive
A pledge of money placed into a pot. Your votive signals your belief in a project and your willingness to pay when it's completed. Votives are only charged when a project is approved and paid out by The Council. You can cancel your votive at any time before that.
The Council
The moderators and administrators of Artypot. The Council verifies Summon identities, approves completed projects for payout, and keeps the platform running with integrity.
The Herald
When a Summon is yet unanswered, it is up to loyal fans to take on the role of Herald â the caretaker of that Summon's unclaimed presence on Artypot.
The Overlord, Harry Baldwig himself
The founding super-administrator of Artypot. Above The Council, The Overlord holds ultimate authority over the platform â the architect of the system and keeper of its soul.
