yeah anyone trying to count I would copy and paste into excel, and then separate out the matches from the 'leapers' or you are asking for a headache.

Hey. I haven't read today's thread yet, so maybe there are instructions there. I see several ATOP matchers have donated their matches already--GREAT! I had blithely figured all the matching would happen at once at the end of the day, but I can see, looking at the charity-water page, how encouraging it is to have the matching happen alongside the donating...SO: I guess I'll just wait until I'm told to donate by someone? Are we going in a certain order? I won't be able to be on here all day, but starting around 3pm Eastern I'll be on for a while and will check if there are more instructions. Short of that, I'll donate my whole match before I go to bed tonight (and identify the match clearly in the comments). I fail at Excel, rabbitrabbit, thus continuing my unbroken useless streak  SOO exciting to see the donations flowing in! Good work, peeps! ETA: looks like we're matching top-to-bottom on the matchers spreadsheet, so I'll just wait until it looks like i'm next on the list and then donate (if I'm online around then). Doesn't need to be exact, right? |

I'll wait til end of day then donate anyway. If it's not my "turn" shall I still indicate that it's a "Matching Donation"? I guess the logistics don't matter that much as long as the total CLIMBS! And LOLOL at midwifespal's " thus continuing my unbroken useless streak.."

I've counted 130 donations already, and it's still early! This is amazing.
I'm guessing no one will withhold their matching donation if we don't have the exact number, will they? It's difficult to keep it all straight, but I think we can at least come close to an accurate count with several of us monitoring the site.

I did a donation late on the 28th to start the ball rolling ... I'll save the rest 'til later in the day to see if I need to be a match-or or a match-ee ... |
