Here's how I would have done it:

Anyhow, the idea was to simplify the workflow and simultaneously abuse the power of defaults and user psychology. I also intentionally ditched some parts of the offer which I don't think add business value, such as fine-grained control on the split.

(I'd A/B test including "65% of people pay this much" on the #1 step, probably with a subtle yellow highlighting.)

The fine grained control makes me feel like I have more say in the process, even if in the end I'll probably just split evenly.

I don't think the find-grained control adds any business value, but I think they put it in there for people who had already paid for some of the games, since some of them are fairly popular. World of Goo did a pay what you want approach a few months back.

"Stick it to the man" makes a great bullet point.
