November 11, Veteran's Day Money Bomb (let's stand united! and get to work!)

Ok so would you say the consensus here is NOT for the design or NOT for the domain name? Or no on both?

Well, the name of the moneybomb is Ron Paul's Veteran Day's Moneybomb. It isn't Ron Paul's, it's the grassroots.
 
I'm in favor of the design layout at VETSFORPAUL.com and believe the domain name works.

It's themed well for Veterans Day and this is a money bomb for Ron Paul. The site says everything you need to know at first glance, if you're a paul supporter, you know what it is. It's reminiscent to the BTO's theme (which has already proven to be a success)....if it's not broke don't fix it in other words.

The conceptual layouts in this thread are beautiful but I believe they lack half of the message (Ron Paul). There isn't anything about a money bomb or Ron Paul in them. I think it's a mistake to start from scratch and disregard something that's already in motion.

I do like the End These Wars layout best, but it's not a moneybomb layout, I'm sorry. I would use them as a long term informational website that gains support over the next few months and on.

maybe that's because I did those layouts in 15 minutes? you're supposed to use your imagination when comparing them. it's just a layout, you put the info together in your head...
 
Whoa, I didn't mean to get a whole redesign and name shift started this late. Point an extra domain name or two there, but keep the name; it'll be useful for at least some of the demographic. I think the current vetsforpaul site is dynamite, I just want to shift the focus enough to make sure the Troops needs get top billing, not some "money-grubbing politician" :D :D (Note the quotes and the double grins... I'm talking about how the warmongers and chickenhawks would spin it.)

Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. Time's awasting.

We don't even have a domain name.
 
BRING 'EM HOME!

I'd love a new avatar to use as my Face Book pic for this event. :rolleyes:

Thanks for all your hard work, Chainspell!!!!
 
FWIW, via my mom:

Chinese numerology and Feng Shui for 2011. This year we are going to experience four unusual dates: 1/1/11, 1/11/11, 11/1/11, 11/11/11.
And that's not all, take the last two digits of the year you were born and the age you will be this year and the result will add up to 111 for everyone! This is the year of MONEY.

[...]

Good luck to you. This only happens once in 800 years.

When I read it, I immediately thought of this money bomb.
 
I'm not sure if this person is updating the pledge count or if the pledge/subscribe form works or not but this is going in the right direction per past successes (BTO). The branding is clean and consistent.

While I see a lot of great work on the November 11th Money Bomb on several Threads....I guess looking from the outside and probably not close to knowing all that is going on....it seems this event just is not coming together....at least not very quickly.

Can anyone update the thread on the progress and when the pledge website, face book page etc... and videos..... will be fully operational... Time seems to be fast slipping away......only 16 days until the 11th....

Again, Thank you all for your hard work on this Money Bomb.....

Thank you

I agree. I'm predicting this money bomb to be a complete failure unless things start to come together pretty soon. As of right now I have no idea what's going on and it's starting to piss me off. There's like five different threads for this money bomb. When I put together the main planning thread for Black This Out I made sure to keep it updated so everybody knew exactly what was going on and what we were all shooting for.

The main problem I see here is that there is ABSOLUTELY NO COMMUNICATION between the people running the event and the grassroots. I have no idea who's in charge. I know Gage made the website and the Facebook event, but he doesn't post on this forum to keep us updated of anything that's going on. We have no idea what he's planning. I have no idea if Dusman is involved with this either. He hasn't been posting. Is he working with Gage or not? And is Chainspell here working with them also, or did he just create this idea thread?

The lack of communication with the people running this event gives off the appearance that it's not put together well. Because there is nobody here running the event to filter our ideas and implement them on the website, the creativity is stagnant. We have no promotion goal. Hell, there is no promotion yet because nobody knows what's going on. Time is slipping away here and we need answers.

I'm guessing all those banners above my post are new, so that's some progress. Also, it seems that www.SupportThemNow.com is now the main website for the money bomb and VetsForPaul.com links to it. Now we just need somebody in charge of this thing to get here on the forum so we can have some communication, or else this thing will continue to go nowhere.

I sent a message to the campaign from this site linking this thread to ask if they can help collaborate to make this a big moneybomb for Ron Paul. Hopefully they will check it out. Thanks for all the work on this moneybomb. Hopefully it will be a good one.
 
If vetsforpaul is redirecting to supportthemnow, cool.

Lets promote and make it big.

Hey and it looks like the pledge counter moved ;)
