I always give all to developers because i'm buying games and i want the makers of all these games happy .
I really hate when people says "its for charity", when in my opinion its for the games.

Nope, the only money they make from this is whatever people decide to give them.

50% charity
40% developers
10% humble tip because i think that this amount is enough for the bandwidth and the development of the promotions

I always use the default option.

Same, default split is fine for me. Charity gets a bit, Humble gets a tip and the devs take home the biggest slice.

Since I'm buying games, this feels the most fair.

Most to devs and rest to humble bundle.
I don't believe in charity receiving money. They are a company and they need to give salary to their employers which comes from your charity money. If you want to give something to charity, give them an item (Like cloth, toys, old PC's and what not)

Pretty much this. It has always bothered me that "Non-Profit" charities pay themselves so well, some of them anyway.

I fall in this category. I always give the devs a nice chunk and the rest as a humble tip. Normally 80/20 I think.
I don't donate to charities I don't have extensive knowledge of.

I start from default. I increase charity to 35% and within charities I usually go 50-50. If I already bought humble with same game I decrease money for its developer (but not to 0) and give to charity instead. Humble tip I keep default.

Also humble money sliders are annoying and they should be lockable.

May I ask why?

To be honest I'm not 100% familiar with this specific charity, but their "cause" is noble and many studies shows that games, books, and so on can have a very good effect on the recovery of sick kids.

iirc, it's mostly a US charity. A lot of people outside of the US don't support them because of it.

First of all, it was not announced by Humble Bundle (nor by PopCap/EA). All the rumors and unofficial announcements that basically started from the change in a Steam DB entry.

But keep in mind that some other Humble Bundle steam db entries have turned out to be incorrect (or changed)- i.e bonus games to the Origin bundle. All information originating from steam DB, while actually showing a real change in the game DB is always up for changing (or not happening at all) due to a lot of different reasons.
Humble Bundle rarely (or ever) comments on any "direct rumor" and probably never will and that's good for most developers, since announcing sales/bundles before they go live could hurt their normal sales

That said, I do think we will see that said (Or a slightly changed) PopCap offer at some point. But I do think it will be a weekly sale rather than a bundle.

It depends on how much I give to charity. If it's indie company's in the bundle I give most of my purchase to the Devs because I feel they need it the most. But if it is a big established company I give most of it to charity.
Also I don't give any to humble tip because I feel they get enough money from others for them to get by well enough.

100% charity. No other way I can justify getting all these bundle games I'll never play.

Depends on the charity. If it's one that has its act together, I tend to split fairly high amounts to the charity and devs, and 10% to HB. If it's one I don't agree with or feel has misused funds in the past, then 90% devs 10% HB.

0-10% Developers, 90-100% Charity, depending on indieness of developer. Mostly so I don't have to think about it too hard if I will even play the games. So yeah, for me it basically is "for charity" with benefits ^^

I don't have a set percentage, but I do usually split my money this way

1 - Most to the devs. Especially when it's games I'm interested in. I want to support the devs so that they can continue to create games (and hopefully stay indie)

2 - Pretty close to the devs comes the charity one. This sometimes is my number 1 split depending on the bundle i,e WB one, but still giving WB some money with the hope of future AAA-bundles)

3 - Humble Bundle. They need money as well so they're getting a few dollars per each bundle purchase. Both as a "Thank you" and so that they can continue to help out with ports (yes they are helping devs to port their games!) and developing their services and so on.

on first purchase of a bundle 100% to devs, if i buy it again to give it to other people 100% to Humble... since i give directly to charities i don't see a sense in giving even more to them when i could be supporting the devs (even if its not the full price they would normally get) and the humble service so that it can continue working.... unlike another certain thing not mentioning names stares at twitch.tv services

About 30 cents for humble bundle to cover the paypal transaction fees (I don't know how much it actually costs), the remainder to charity. Developers get nothing.

Nothing to charity.

Sorry but I live in much poorer country than Murrica. If they'll go outside of USA I might change my mind.

About rest of purchase - 80% for devs, 20% goes to Humble team.

It depends of the charity fundation. For example child's play helps UK, Australia and USA childs only http://www.childsplaycharity.org/donate, and charity:water give clean water to countries in south america, africa, asia. http://www.charitywater.org/projects/ (sorry, I don't know how to put the links).

Anyways normally I put 90% or 100% to devs and 10% or 0 to charity.

I am not sure about the whole charity thing that HB does. I feel more sympathy for the developers who are doing something good and deserve to be rewarded the way I see it. So most of the times I go with 100% for the devs.
