Trevor and/or Nathaniel -
I have this posted in the main Grassroots Central forum, but I want to make sure you see this...
I think we need an announcement on TeaParty07.com concerning what time zone folks should donate (and possibly a reminder or two in the emails that Trevor sends out as well).
The countdown ticker is not good enough, since it operates off the user's own computer clock, which may not be set to the correct time/date.
.This has been brought up before, but seeing as we're about a week away from the December 16th Tea Party, some folks are confused about WHEN to donate their money...
ALL donations for the Tea Party should be made between the hours of 12:01 a.m. and 11:59 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST) on December 16th, 2007.
This is the time period that the official site www.RonPaul2008.com uses and it will be the time period that the press uses to calculate whether or not we raise our $10 million in one 24-hour period.
On the Nov. 5th money bomb, I remember a lot of donations came in in the hour or two after 12 midnight on Nov. 5th - and were not counted towards the total for Nov. 5th. These were probably donations from folks living in the western US time zones, who thought that they were donating on the 5th. This Dec. 16, we need to maximize our donation efforts and make sure everyone's donation counts on the correct day.
