I took a look at some graphs of successful kickstarter campaigns on http://canhekick.it/, and it appears that a good percentage of them start strong, lose steam in the middle, then pick up once again toward the end.

It fails at multiple points in our scripts. The post command appears to not be working either, though several liburl function/commands do seem to be working. It is very odd. Gabe On Mon, Nov 19, 2012 at 5:34 PM, Mark Wieder wrote: > Gabriel Johnson writes: > > >p
