The Official Moneybomb Prediction Thread

[trey4sports]

What say you?

[bluesc]

$800,000 max

[Sjmfury]

I think we will break 1.5 Million.

[InTradePro]

Anything over $250K in a bonus. I'm not expecting much from this one.

250K ? C'mon now.

[Michigan11]

Not sure, but each moneybomb grows bigger

[bluesc]

We already have that in pledges :p. Expect double that at a minimum.

[D.A.S.]

I'll say around 2Mil can be expected. If we meet or exceed that, I'll be very happy!

[afwjam]

Same size or larger then the Birthday bomb.

[InTradePro]

We already have that in pledges :p. Expect double that at a minimum.

Not hoping for much but happy if I'm wrong. The SuperPAC in two days after will have a diluting effect imho.

[Elfshadow]

Need Ticker:toady:

[ItsTime]

What was the birthday one? I think I voted for the wrong one ha.

looks like the money feed was turned back on at about 3pm today

something must be wrong with that feed because im pretty sure the campaign didn't raise 400K today...

[Elfshadow]

I assuming thats all the money from since it was turned off after the last bomb. Wish it was higher.

[libertybrewcity]

I'll keep it conservative and say 1 million mainly because I can only donate 10 or 15 this time around...I don't know how other people are feeling.

I also like graphics and not seeing any graphics all over facebook makes me worried.

[afwjam]

looks like we raised about $600k over the last month since the last moneybomb.

[trey4sports]

looks like we raised about $600k over the last month since the last moneybomb.


where do you get that number? I see 387,000 ???

[DGraham]

Is there anyway for an evil foreigner from the old empire to donate, not being a US citizen and all?

[afwjam]

the last moneybomb raised 1.8 million, the ticker is now at 2.43 million or so.

[eaglesfan48]

I def think over 1.5m, I think all the doubters are going to be pleasantly surprised!

[Steve-in-NY]

Yes, go buy something from a site that donates - like www.ronpaulstuff.com

Also, http://paul.depositwiz.com IS set to show day by day, and feeds from the site in real time, so those numbers are actually accurate as per the time frames afaik - so I have a feeling this might be WAY bigger than I thought (750k-1M) which is GREAT news.

[FreedomProsperityPeace]

I'm going to say $1.25M- $1.50M. I'm conservative in my guess because we've had some who have maxed out and some who seem to have had their faith shaken, and there will be a little dilution over the end of the month because of the "end of quarter push". This will be offset somewhat by new recruits I hope, to equal somewhere in that range. I hope I'm pleasantly surprised, however.

[messana]

Wonder if RevolutionPAC will take some of the air out.

[DeadheadForPaul]

250k

Is it my internetz, or is that some odd chinese site?

[trey4sports]

[Jwatt84]

Id love for the moneybomb to make a couple of millions but my prediction is 1.5 mil with a minimum of 1 milion

welcome to the forums, glad to see fresh faces.

[Paul4Prez]

This one's going to be big. The debates earned a lot of coverage, and people are starting to tune in to the presidential race now. My prediction:

$2,012,917.76

[helmuth_hubener]

lol, yeah. someone got their websites mixed up Maybe you meant http://ronpaulswag.com/super-products.html , though they seem to not yet have this feature working. I'm sure you could work something out with someone here via PMs.... :cool:

[Jwatt84]

welcome to the forums, glad to see fresh faces.

Thanks. A big fan of rp. Ever since I discovered him laat month around the time of the ames straw poll.

[iamse7en]

I say $10 million. But they're just promises. I heard Romney is gonna donate tomorrow.

[Kylebutler]

$3.7mil :)

[AmberH]

$1,141,287.64

[ross11988]

1.5 Million

[RonPaulFever]

I wish the campaign had set a goal. This is going to lower the amount of donations.

[Elfshadow]

Yeah we dont seem to be climbing as fast as the last one.

[JamesButabi]

I like the little tidbit at the bottom about amount of signers :)

[raider4paul]

http://www.ronpaul2012.com/radio/

This shows about $120k more than the ticker at the beginning of the thread. Which one can we trust?

The one at the beginning of the thread is messed up

But this one does not agree with the radio one either.

http://www.ronpaul2012.com/

[raider4paul]

Can we just add them together and ask the Fed to print enough to match it? I seriously doubt they'll feel a moral problem with that.

[leffewture]

$520,000

The radio ticker is how much money people pledged. The money people donated is on the homepage

[mport1]

Unfortunately <$750k. I have seen very little promotion for this.

[Tod]

It would be really cool to have a line graph of various moneybomb revenues as a function of time so we can see how we are doing relative to other moneybombs at any given point in time.

Birthday money bomb 12:40 central $707,566

yuck

[IRONCLAD]

I believe we'll be at around $800K at the end of it.

[AmberH]

yuck


Yeah, I think its because the superbomb is so close, blackthisout will be better though

[PaulConventionWV]

Therein lies the answer. I knew the Superbomb would take away from this. Somehow, I feel Tom Woods really doesn't care.

[D.A.S.]

Boy oh boy... I'm not impressed so far. Just over 5,500 people donating so far, and ~$320,000 is really quite dismal compared to the Birthday bomb. At this point, we should be over $600,000.

Out of over 500,000 facebook supporters, that's 1% donating so far! yikes...

[RonPaulFever]

I hope they keep the ticker up all weekend and set a goal at some point. Without a goal there is less motivation to donate....I don't know what the campaign was thinking when they set this up.

[HenryKnoxFineBooks]

Thank you!

Thank you for your generous donation!

Amount: $100.00
Transaction ID: 308705752
Transaction date/time: 2011-09-17 13:34:16




Weekends are generally bad for donations. People are out and about, not at their desks.

After considering my own situation, I suppose you are right. I'm a bit hungover right now and almost forgot to donate. I assume it happens with a lot of young Ron Paul supporters on a Saturday morning, not to mention the fact that that is his biggest base of supporters.

[Tod]

I can kind of see why they wouldn't want to set a goal beforehand, just in case they didn't reach it, but it sure would be nice to have something to aim for.

[IndianaPolitico]

I think that we will reach 800,000 to 1 million.

[LibertyEsq]

This has nothing to do with the superbomb, people donating to the superbomb couldn't donate to this bomb anyway. It's about poor promotion/no goal setting

oh c'mon now. Don't through the baby out with the bathwater....

It's better when the campaign doesn't set goals because historically this election cycle we haven't reached the goal but one time. No goes means no negative spin.

[fishfear07]

Why are we not raising the same kind of money that we were last campaign?

[InTradePro]

Why are we not raising the same kind of money that we were last campaign?

We are much earlier in 2012 campaign cycle compared to 2008. The first moneybomb was in November 2007 with Iowa voting on January 3, 2008. This time the first voting is not until February 2012.

[LibertyEsq]

I absolutely disagree. Setting an ambitious goal always increases performance. It's better to set a goal for $2,000,000 and get to $1.5 than not set a goal and end up with 700,000

there's no evidence that setting a goal for 2 million will produce a 1.5 million total and not setting a goal at all will produce 700,000. You're literally making that up.

You've just defined the point of a hypothetical scenario.

[RonPaulFever]

is it possible that the campaign didn't set a goal because they want more money to go the RevPac?

no.
