I think $15 pledges Won't be Enough. It Needs to be Raised

Let's face it, we're not going to get 100,000 pledges in 9 days. We almost didn't get 10,000 pledges in half a month for the FreeAtLast money bomb.

Because of this, I think the $ pledge needs to be raised, or else a lot of people are only going to donate just that, and we'll end up getting even less than the FreeAtLast money bomb.

People can still donate only what they can afford, but I think we need to raise the pledge amount, or we're going to be extremely disappointed with the outcome. After finding out $15 pledges is a typo, I still think that it needs to be raised to $100 pledges for 51,000 people.

Crap, I just noticed that it's actually a typo. It's supposed tp be $51, but even then I think it should really be $100.
 
People will donate what they can not what is suggested... Have you ever donated more than once during a money bomb?

We can only assume this is true for people. We don't actually know if it's true without evidence, so why not play it safe by raising it? If people can't afford what it's raised to, then they'll donate what they can afford, but we can't be completely sure about what people would do if it was the other way around.
 
I think it should be $51 not $15 anyway (transposition). It does not add up to $5.1M --
 
$51 dollars from all the people who see the anniversary site will be enough for that part. The rest must be made through the Fox News Moneybomb.

Either way, its not going to make anything unless we all START TELLING PEOPLE! :D

Aim to tell/email 5 people/blogs about it today.
 
It should be $100 (Or However much you can afford)
Should be in ounces of silver, that way it does not inflate away before the campaign turns it over to the very corporations that ignore him. Sad irony.
 
The MLK pledge was 10 bucks and we raised 2 million.

$51 is great. It's just the right amount to attrack more donors, and anyone can donate more if they'd like.

Leave as is
 
I think $100 turns some people off. $51 will attract more people.

If you want to donate $100, then donate $100. I'm pretty sure we didn't raise 2 million on MLK day with people actually donating the 10 dollar pledge.
