While I will definitely donate on Nov 2nd, the way I read the rules is that if OCF has the most donations that day, it will win a thousand dollars. To win the $50,000, OCF would have to have the most days of winning number of donations out of the entire thirty days. Winning just on Nov 2nd would not earn anything except the $1000 as well as count as one day towards the $50,000.
Also a technicality: [quote](Daily awards begin at 3:00pm ET and run through 2:59pm ET the following day.)[/quote]
I think that means that OCF members have to donate after 3pm on Nov 2nd (noon in Megan's time) and before 3pmET on Nov 3rd.
Based on the charity challenge, we should be able to win Nov 2nd.
