[QUOTE="J.Quondam, post: 8368694, member: 7030100"] 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"! [LIST] [*]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. [LIST] [*]I've never been sold by a stretch goal. [/LIST] [*]Not interested in miscellenia like stickers or buttons or whatever. [*]I don't usually delve into the numbers or research the creator much. [LIST] [*](For the most kickstarters-- eg the tiny idie ones-- I'm not really putting a whole of money on the line.) [/LIST] [*]I always like beautiful, high-production value art and layout, but usually resist the temptation. [I]Usually,[/I]but not always. [LIST] [*]I really enjoy some some rougher, lower production books, too, again mainly to support a creator with a nifty concept. [/LIST] [*]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. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
