For me, it's a graduated scale.
Up to $10-11 - $1 (when I eat out for lunch, my total is normally $8-9, sometimes a bit higher)
$10 - $20 - $3
$20 - $25 - $5
$25 - $100 - a % rounded to the nearest $1
>$100 - a % rounded to the nearest $5
Rule #1 - Tipping is NOT mandatory, but you kinda gotta screw yourself out of it. Quickest way to no tip is walking past me when my glass is empty and I'm still eating. I have no fear of writing a big ol' ZERO on the tip line.
Biggest tip I've ever left, $50 on a meal of ~$150.
