Since it is a stretch goal level, you can pick a movie that will be in the PIE forum for 24 hours.

Wait!

Looking closer ....   BEAU got there before any of you, so no movies!   You gotta get there before those of managing the kickstarter!

But y'all can keep the PIE!  :)

It took us about 2.5 hours to jump from the last stretch goal to this one.  If we can get one more stretch goal in, it will be cutting it down to the last few seconds!

Rural internet can't slow me down.  As long as I'm not trying to share screen while zooming.

Today is now the 3rd best day of this campaign, grossing $12,697.

Day 1 grossed $25,137.

Day 2 grossed $15,649.

Can we bump off Day 2 before time runs out?

About an hour for the last $1000 to come in.  

We have about 1.5 hours to go.  So maybe we will get $1500 more before the end?

So we will finish around $168,500?

We are at $14,183 for the day, still our 3rd best day.
I'm iffy about whether or not we'll pass Day 2 at $15,649.

Its is also the 3rd best last day of any of Paul's kickstarters, behind:

19,263 - BWB
14,276 - RMH 4-DVD Set

I'm thinking we're about to pass RMH to become the 2nd best last day.

Interesting note:

We made 360 referrer codes.  Each one can be counted as something we tried. About 140 of those actually brought in something.  So this kickstarter is made out of 140 little things.
