Apparently it also seems to good to be true, to some people. I just read this comment in reply to the new planetary transition clip:

Can you please referal link those.
Can’t just leave them be without checking myself that they have been answered. It hurts.
Don’t worry I already replied of course. 
I will send you the link.

I made new graphs and fit them with existing data, also added a end-game push and raised the assumed daily pledge amount to $3.5k. Looks ok IMO.
I tried to fit the numbers in such a way to show the minimum required to reach the goal, average daily amounts could be lower or higher and the end push could be greater or smaller.

Yep, yours looks roughly right, @cybercritic. Generally the last day is around half the first one, and it builds up toward it at the end. 300-350k unless something big happens that makes it raise tens or hundreds of thousands over a few days like more news coverage, viral spreading on social media sites, or a reddit IAMA that’s big.

We are pretty far behind that projection. Far from safe yet.

True, it’s an estimate, many things can happen, it’s only day 5.
Potentially coming into at least a tiny bump in fundign numbers though, just the last hour or so has netted a bunch of new backers from just the reddit thread alone.

Looks like it raised about 13k just in the past 12 hours or so? (edit: 9k)
3 new $2500 backers as well today, I think.
Only 1. The other 2 were the last 2 days. I think we’re getting one 2.5k backer a day.
Oh I thought I saw 2 of 5 taken like 2 hours ago but I may have misread it as 2 of 5 available.

I’m using the kicktraq “day” as daily data, today has a bump, better than yesterday ($9k to $6k), with still half a day left. I also believe that Reddit exposure is responsible for this.

Yep. That’s why I posted wondering why there is no IAMA.
Reddit is the best way to promote things next to word of mouth/viral. It is in itself a bit of that.

The devs just contacted /r/gaming for an AMA.

That’s great to hear.
Should probably be on /r/IAMA though? Those tend to have a high chance of reaching /r/all for a long time IIRC.

Based on actual time, not Kicktraq days:
(Total and date time in brackets)
1st 24hrs: $82,570 ($82,570 - Thu, 22 Oct 2015 12:03:06 UTC)
2nd 24hrs: $15,706 ($98,276 - Fri, 23 Oct 2015 12:02:22 UTC)
3rd 24hrs: $8,266 ($106,542 - Sat, 24 Oct 2015 12:09:42 UTC)
4th 24hrs: $6,293 ($112,835 - Sun, 25 Oct 2015 12:11:23 UTC)
As people have noted, there’s been a significant uptick since about 17:00 (5pm) UTC.
Current requirement = $278/hour which equates to $6686/24 hours
Edit: With the initial Reddit surge flattening out, the average daily requirement has been pushed down $169 to $6,517
Edit 2:
5th 24hrs: $28,419 ($141,546 - Mon, 26 Oct 2015 12:01:42 UTC)
Current requirement = $264/hour ($6,344/24hrs)

You’re so generous with those last 4 days pledges.
