That was US$150,000 for Kickstarter in an evening, right? I just looked it up and it seems to be a 5% share.

Frankly, I thought it was less than that. Big figures are really favorable for them then.

Kickstarter as a whole broke it's all time pledges yesterday taking in $3,174,820 [1]. At 5%, and if all pledges pay, Kickstarter took in $158,741. Not all pledges follow through on payment.
