View Full Version : Why not have ONE big "money bomb" day?

There are currently too many money bomb days. We know that the more money we'll raise in 24 hours, the bigger the impact. So instead of spreading the bomb over a bunch of different days, wouldn't it make sense to combine them into one big bomb day?
December 16 seems like the best day, because:
1) The symbolism (certainly better than Guy Fawkes day)
2) It's not too soon, and people who donated on Nov 5 might donate again.
3) It's towards the end of the quarter and will give Ron Paul a nice final boost.
This way there's even a chance that we'll break the previous record we set, which would be crazy.

I think that's already the plan. ;)

I think the 11th is too soon, although the $1 million goal for that day is probably attainable if it's hyped enough.
Dec. 16th, though....that will be a perfect storm :)

Oh, ok. I just joined the forum and didn't read much of the discussion, but saw a ton of threads promoting different bomb days.

The 11th was more a protest Money Bomb because certain people didn't like the V for Vendetta tie-in... myself included..
Had I not maxed out on June 13, I would be donating on the 11th, although I probably would have thrown some cash in on the 5th after it beat the $2.5M mark, which was way over what I expected...
After that though, I believe the general consensus is Dec 16th.

Yeah, thankfully - we're starting to converge on one huge day for the fundraiser - the 16th.

We need 3 money bomb days in a row. Media coverage for name recognition purposes. The 72 hour rule.

I don't agree with your sig, for the reasons I outlined in my original post.
