How many are going to give just a few minutes after midnight?

I'm assuming we are talking about Central time? If so, we better make sure the eastern time folks wait til 1 am.

Just thought

I wish we could get 1,000 to donate $2300

I'll probably wait until a couple of hours into 11/5 before submitting my donation.

wait until the next morning at least just for the servers and so that it definitely gets counted on the 5th... an even bigger test!

The RP servers are in the Eastern Time Zone, so just after 10 PM Sunday where I am at (Mountain). I am donating $200 at 10:30 PM Sunday so that I don't add to the server load on Monday. I am planning on donating an extra $100 for each $2 million. Hopefully a bunch of other people do the same so it ends up being an infinite positive feedback loop. :D

I'm worried that there will be a huge influx of donations right after midnight Eastern time... Looking at RonPaulGraphs.com, the slowest donation hours are between 2 AM and 6 AM Eastern time, if anyone wants to try to avoid overloading the servers....

Why would we want to test the servers like that? We don't want them to go down you know. As long as it is after midnight eastern time, it will be counted.

Just do like I said, $100 for every mill or two. Then it will feed back into a huge singularity and blow up the universe! :D

I'm really afraid someone is going to hack the site on the 5th. :(

Other than that, I'm giving at least $300.

Don't blame me if we do cause a black hole with the sheer mass of cash though. :p

Bypass the front page and donate directly through the donation page (in the past, when the main page has been down, the donation page has worked): https://www.ronpaul2008.com/donate/

I'll probably wait until the morning I don't want to crash the servers, would it be better to split my donations throughout the day so the ticker rises and rises? $100 in the morning, $100 at night?

We should've thought of this sooner. SOS already sent out the e-mail to everyone, it would've helped if he included this important detail in it. Any other ideas on how we can spread the word on this??

We can still have the guy running the site send out the donation page.

$100 for each million raised. Then it will feed back on itself and people will get the fever and not stop. Kind of like ebay bidding.

Only 1 day away!

Tell everyone you know, even if you think some may not support, tell anyway!
