>>25516996Management is fucking slow. It's not like anyone couldn't shit shill out the money from their own pocket to get a new costume technically, although in IRyS' case the rrat is that Redjuice is being an asshole, the problem is all the hoops that need to be jumped through for it to actually materialize, including as mentioned getting the artist to do the work, and how long it can take when it's deprioritized over events already planned out months in advance
Making it a reward probably gets people to move their asses a little faster
