Check your pledge status, patreon has issues
Added 2015-07-01 21:59:26 +0000 UTCHello dear patrons! I have been informed that several other content creator have problems with hundreds of patrons pledge being instantly declined, probably due to an issues on Patreon's side. All I ask is that you double check your status to see if your pledge got in, or got declined for no reason, I am powerless and all I can do is tell you all about this issue, thank you for your time!
P.S don't check just with my pledge, check all your pledge with all the content creators, this is a site-wide problem apparently, so I'm helping to spread the word.
Here's their twitter on the issue:

and here's the link to check your pledge and retry if your pledge got autodeclined. Reminder: Paypal usually doesn't work with nsfw content, they're wimps.

Well I got a email from patreon saying they were sorry and the issue was being resolved, that creators would get their money, and that patron wouldn't be charged twice or anything. Checking my list, there's still quite a few pendings, but only a few declined now, not more than ususal, so all is good. I blame the Leap Second!!
