On November 5th, the donation rate at 8.30 am was about $230,000 per hour, today it is only $150,000 per hour.

I hope this is because people sleep in longer on Sundays.

However, I am worried that less people will be paying attention on a Sunday.

We need to get it up to $200,000 per hour consistantly for the rest of the day, otherwise we may not even break $4 million.

The next hour or two is crucial. If we can't get up to 400k per hour we are not going to see figures over 7 million like we were expecting a few hours ago.
 
i know...this is what I was telling people last night and no one listened. Everyone is way to over-confident about this.
 
The only thing I'm worried about is the people that only read their email at work (which is significant and some people might not remember)...it might morph to a 2 day money bomb for this reason.

call 15 people you know and tell them WHY you donated, that will fix it. :)

Currently 148.16 K and rising, it bottomed out about 145. People are starting to wake up now.
 
This isn't a weekday, so people will sleep in longer. It makes sense that the slow early morning traffic lasts longer.
 
Have no fear, we're on a path to crush Nov 5.

Who knows, maybe I just figured out a way to cut a hole in one of the internet tubes and siphon off half the donations into my own tube that leads to my safe in my basement.

MUAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

Maybe I wouldn't tell anyone (especially not the authorities) if you cut me in for a mere 40% of your hypothetical profits.
 
your right the next two hours will be crucial. But right now if you compare the Total raised graph for today compared with the Nov 5th, we're still hovering above that line . I agree that we need to pick up steam, but since today's not a typical weekday, it's understandable that people will wake up later than they usually do. Matter of fact i just woke up 5 min ago.
 
Shoulder to Shoulder.
Hold the Line! Hold the line!
Let's keep our focus for the good Doctor!
 
Here are the donation rate graphs overlaid. Dec.16th on top.

You can see we started very fast but are falling behind noticeably. Just hoping this is the sleep in effect. Else we could have a dissappointing day.

and if you are wrong? then you were too paranoid.

We sahll see soon, shant we. I am going to bet you were too paranoid.

Do nto expect any real pick up until 10 or even 11 eastern. It's Sunday, and people are sleeping in. I have been awake all night through the really dead times. (which is when I donated)

Ok,youre in. Just tell me your address so I can run a tube from my house to yours. It might take a couple of days though. I have to go to menards and pick up a TON of PVC pipe.

I hope you live close to Illinois, otherwise this will cost a fortune.:D
 
It is picking up now. People do go to church on Sunday mornings too. I think we can't expect a solid showing until Noon EST. We are an hour and a half ahead of donations from the 5th. Total # of donors is ahead. Everything will be okay

You're an evil bastard!
 
This Is Our Day!

And I know I don't need to reiterate why it is so very important that we blow this thing wide open.

If anyone can think of anything we can do to notify people, either here, or Americans overseas, please do it. If you need help doing it, please tell us here.

Let's do this thing! :D
