YES

2. If YES, how many did you fund? 10 (9 successful and 1 Unsuccessful)

3. How likely are you to fund a Kickstarter board or card game project in 2013?
 
Slightly likely (it needs to be mind blowing and a value, tired of the way Kickstarter has changed to a preorder site)
 

Thanks for the feedback!

1. Yes
2.
  • Spirit of the Century Presents: The Dinocalypse Trilogy
    Series of novels based on the Spirit of the Century RPG & setting (and thus the Race to Adventure board game). At the level I kicked in, I'm in line for a whole pile of PDF novels thanks to stretch goals.
  • Pure Steam - Pathfinder Compatible RPG Setting
    PDF level. Hit funding targets but no glut of stretch goals.
  • Dungeon World: A Game with Modern Rules & Old-School Style
    Softcover level and then all sorts of PDF freebies like extra classes & adventures.
  • Machine Age Micro Games Mega Project
    Cool idea: Set a super low target ($500 total). Finish development and layout (of these small focused games) in order of priority. Give most of them away for free. IMHO, this patronage model seems more in line with how Kickstarter should run instead of the "expectation of finished product" prepurchase. 
  • Better Angels -- A Hell of a Roleplaying Game by Greg Stolze
    I like the kind of work the author (Stolze) and the publisher (Arc Dream / Shane Ivey) put out, lots of Lovecraftian weirdness and in this case, twisted Superheroes/villians.
  • Random Dungeon Generator as a Dungeon Map
    Missed finding this until after the deadline and bought in manually by emailing the designers. It's a fun poster that illustrates the random dungeon rules from old D&D books as a dungeon map itself. My wife insisted that I buy a frame and put it up on the wall, bless her soul. She isn't as excited about things like this, but she loves that I am.
  • tremulus: a storytelling game of lovecraftian horror
    Part of that *World retheme hivemind. I don't like the game as much as I thought I would, but going back in time, would only have changed my pledge to PDF instead of physical copy. 
  • Fate Core
    I discovered the basics of the Fate RPG engine through a sci-fi game, Diaspora, and was interested to see what they'd do with a full overhaul. Haven't read it yet, but I've got copies sitting in my inbox. Funding still hasn't closed and they're already at a billion percent. Well, $300k vs $3k target, but close enough. Might upgrade to physical copies, still have two weeks.

Am I really the only one here who backed over 100 projects in 2012? There were 452 of us on Kickstarter last year, and I find it hard to believe that there's not at least one more BGGer in that top 0.020165%...

1. Yes
2. 1. For $2. (but I'd already funded that project via another way, so
I get more benefits than I would appear to.)
3. Yes, probably. Assuming I can come up with the needed CC.

I really don't have much interest in the Kickstarter process.  I can buy the game later when it's printed and distributed.
