Black This Out, Want $6,000,000? We Need THE ENTIRE MONTH for Promotion & 25,000 Attendees

This is for ItsTime when he comes back to this thread. I think that the Facebook Event description isn't allowing you to fit everything on it because you're allowing the information to run too far vertical. I tried to rewrite the information, though it might need to be compacted even more. Try out what I have below. It should hopefully take care of the issue of people not understanding what a money bomb is. If it still doesn't fit, I'll try working on it again later. We're getting too many new people that don't know what's going on, so we need to make the description as informative as possible...

Attention Mainstream Media - We the people demand an end to your lies and refusal to admit Ron Paul is a 2012 GOP Frontrunner. On October 19th, 2011, tens of thousands of Americans shall stand together to send you a very clear message. We will stand as one with Ron Paul and his mission to change the course of history by raising over $6 million in a single day for his presidential campaign. Go ahead and try to Black THIS Out!

What is a Money Bomb? - The "Black THIS Out" Money Bomb is a 24 hour "Online" fundraising event. On Oct 19th, all donations are to be made to the official campaign website at http://www.RonPaul2012.com​/. Our goal is to break $6 million, but we can ONLY achieve this if we can get 25,000 people to attend this Facebook event! Attend this event and invite all your friends. Check below for all important links...

ItsTime, could you make this change and see if that still cuts off the description?

Bump for ItsTime.
 
‎639 new attendees on facebook today?!

We can break the one day record. I'm devoting the whole evening to pushing this all over the place...
 
Blacked myself out, thanks everyone for all of the hard work you're putting into promoting BTO. I've been putting it off but I just pledged at the official site.

There are undoubtedly others out there, that for some reason or another simply haven't gotten around to pledging yet. Looks like it's going to be a great success!

I also have a few developers looking into a solution. I'd like to have an automation tool for this if possible. Hopefully they'll be able to come up with something.

Perhaps, he'd like to join into the conversation if he's already researched into it.

I sent him a message to come to this thread and join in the conversation, but I haven't heard anything back. Maybe you should try getting in touch with him.

Also, can't wait to see details about this leader board. Once it's up, maybe we can finally get something going with the campaign. I still haven't heard anything back about the "Spend a day with Ron Paul" idea as a reward for coming first in promotion.
 
Bump for ItsTime.

I just made a test event and tried the description. It fits without being cut off. But I'd suggest to Sentinelrv and ItsTime to add a sentence at the beginnging like this (otherwise it seems a bit too in your face straight away):

I'd love to get some video links in there too, but they just won't fit! :(
 
Does anyone think there is a way to tie together BLACK THIS OUT w/ Occupy Wall Street/The Fed? Seems like a great opportunity to pull these together and really use it to our advantage to build hype.

Have somebody go out there and hand out Black This Out flyers to everyone, but put more information on them and explain a little bit about how the Federal Reserve is the real culprit behind the financial collapse, that the Fed is what's keeping Wall Street banks running the way they do and how only Ron Paul is trying to put an end to it. Then explain that the media is trying to dismiss him as a contender because he's for real change. I don't know, something like that. It would be great to get them informed about the Fed and have them make the connection that Ron Paul is their only way out of this mess.
