CR 1/8
I've backed about a dozen, over 8ish years. All were RPG-related, and about 3/4 were really small indie projects, which I like for the purpose of tossing a little cash at creators with appealing ideas-- even if I'm unlikely to actually use the thing.
Mostly I back for hardcopies of RPG setting books, but a couple themed dice sets, too.
Oh, and the very first kickstarter I ever backed was "Rebuilding ENWorld"!

- I usually hear about a kickstarter, then put it on "Remind me" and defer the decision til the end.
- I only like stretch goals that add content, as long as they seem small enough to finish in time for a reasonable delivery.
- I've never been sold by a stretch goal.
- Not interested in miscellenia like stickers or buttons or whatever.
- I don't usually delve into the numbers or research the creator much.
- (For the most kickstarters-- eg the tiny idie ones-- I'm not really putting a whole of money on the line.)
- I always like beautiful, high-production value art and layout, but usually resist the temptation. Usually,but not always.
- I really enjoy some some rougher, lower production books, too, again mainly to support a creator with a nifty concept.
- Not a huge fan of too many emails.
- I rarely track updates-- except in the one case I recall that the project got behind schedule.
