Would $94.50 be the rate paid by an individual paying 3 months at one time?

(3*35) = 105
10% of 105 = 10.5
105-10.5=94.5

I think your 7 month 3 people example fall in the 20% discount if the largest 
discount applies. Other than that I see no issue with this. Being able to pay 
dues for multiple people seem like an more efficient structure than having two 
different pricing plans (a family discount plan and bulk membership plan).

I want to resume our previous discussions about the family discount plans.

First, I agree with Andrew's suggestion that the student and senior rates
should be combined into one. $15 seems reasonable, yeah?

Second, the discount system.

I'd like to stick with the idea of being able to buy subscriptions in blocks.
However, I'd like to adopt a constant discount rate based on how many unique
individuals are being paid for, with a disjoint discount for the number of
months that are bought for a single person.

Here's how I think it can be broken down for a single person:

* 0% discount for 1 month
* 10% discount for 3 or more months

And if it is for a whole group:

* 15% discount for 2-6 people
* 20% discount for 7 or more

If multiple discounts are available, the largest one will be used.

Examples:

* 1 person, 1 month: $35, 0% discount
* 1 person, 2 months: $70, 0% discount
* 1 person, 3 months: $101.5, 10% discount of $105
* 2 people, 1 month for each person: $59.50, 15% discount of $70
* 2 people, 2 months for each person: $119, 15% discount of $140
* 2 people, 3 months for each person: $178.50, 15% discount of $210
* 7 people, 3 months for each person: $624.75, 15% discount of $735

This should be quite a bit simpler than the previous idea, and still keeps
with the original idea of making it easier for couples or families to support
themselves.

Finally, I am considering developing a sliding scale for the low income rate.
I'm not too sure how that would get implemented, but charging a percentage of
membership dues based on the ability to pay seems a lot more fair than pegging
everyone at $15/mo, especially since we're all about inclusiveness.
