i took business math.. but this graph isn't making any sense to me.

how is it going down? are people unsubscribing?
if its only counting subscriptions it can only go up or stay flat, but never go down...

unless people are unsubscribing.

RPG quite frequently has played with numbers in the past, maybe they are not counting certain numbers like they leave out off line donations when the campaign counts them.

Stupid site I still am boycotting until they post real data.

It's not the 15th yet.. I think the peak is current time..
I need to look more.. just my quick thought

The website owner accidentally forgets to change the AM and PM sometimes and that makes it look like it's going backwards.

Those are the Rudy supporters who had a change of heart, when they found out there names would be published. They flip flop like flap jacks in the morning.

Probably the am/pm thing.. the peak looks like about the current # of pledges

12,826 pledges at 5:57 pm EST 11/14/07

Do we know for sure this isn't due to un-subscriptions? I have an email yesterday and today from teaparty07 updating me on the latest numbers. An email which I really don't need. The thought did cross my mind to unsubscribe, if the daily email thing keeps up. I believe this objection has been raised here before. I am still going to donate, of course, but there is the possibility that these daily updates could annoy some people.

Could be neo-cons signing up to inflate the numbers, then unsubscribing to deflate morale.

I'm still going with the am/pm thing.. look at the peak.. it corresponds
with the # of subscribers..

The graph ends at the beginning of the 15th.. it's still the 14th.
