I put myself down for $50 CAD initially but I've changed it to $25 just now, wanting to be cautious at first. (Currently can't actually pay anything because I'm awaiting a new credit card after fraud attempts on the last one; for the same reason I'm not yet part of your Patreon.) Other than your joking years ago about D&D BnB, I don't think I've seen anyone propose paid D&D before. I've never had to think seriously about it so I don't know for sure what my number would be. I would raise the number if things went well, in which case 50 CAD ($40 USD) would not be unreasonable. That's $10 USD per running.
Let's have a look: the 17 current voters are at 5*25 + 5*50 + 4*75 + 2*100, and let's count the single above-100 vote as 150. That totals to 125 + 250 + 300 + 200 + 150, or $1,025 CAD. Promising start. But that's only if you run every single one of those 17 people, and running those 3-4 games would mean severely cutting into your ability to e.g. continue pulling apart your trade tables in order to start your offline game up in a satisfactory manner when summer rolls around.
