Ok, so everyone knows that you should donate now rather than waiting till later.

That being said, some people will still choose to hold back to get into the excitement of a big push at the end. Judging by Nov 5 graphs, the push will start at about 2200 hrs.

So... if you are holding back, lets drop the bucks at 2200 EST! Deal?
 
Don't wait!

I see messages all over the place indicating that people are still waiting to make their donations... This is a huge mistake!

For starters, there have been reports all afternoon that the donation site is hammered, and it may take multiple attempts to make your donation.

That said, if all of the normal supporters jam up the site during the late evening push, it may prevent a new donor being able to make a contribution in time to meet the deadline.

Plus, rampant donations create a positive feedback loop, and increase the likelihood that news stories will get out prior to midnight, and that people who were not planning to donate might be encouraged to do so.

Pony up people... We have no shot at $10M today if we don't get close enough that people start to believe we can make it!
 
We don't need a final surge.

Everyone needs to donate NOW to build the momentum!

The more we donate NOW the more people will be willing to donate later on tonight!!!
 
I think 10 pm is still a very good time! It will give you two hours to get your donations through! LETS DO IT!!!
 
(For the record, I've already done $250 today but am gonna eek out another $75 at 2200. Hope the significant other don't find out!!!)
 
And remember.....for those on the WEST COAST....8:59 PM is our last chance as anything after that will not count in the total for today....just a reminder!
 
The Troops want us to win!!!!

Im digging through the couch pillows now for a 8pm push!
 
I with you for $300 at 2200 which is $200 more than I had originally planned on giving today. Already gave $200 earlier in the morning so that will take me up to $500 for today.
