Actually, I was thinking about it earlier today in class. Considering we only had four days notice, and it was Easter Sunday, um .... 3100 emails isn't that bad.
But we can, and will, do better. Keep writing the letters throughout the week and perfect them, but save them onto your computers and we can build up an arsenal to send with for the next KP day

Killerbebe, That's encouraging news about the stats, I guess I'm just being pessimistic. About Kim's Empire, I'll try to get chapter 14 up by the weekend. Currently I'm almost done with Grounded For Life's next update. Oh, and thanks for welcoming my brother...don't expect an immediate reply from him though..he's a jerk that way! I like your banner suggestions...I'll see what I can do. this time I'll give it a KP theme rathar than star wars! Spacefreak, I agree we should write more...but letters alone won't turn Disney's attention. I believe we need to expand our campaign across the web... We should start threads elsewhere, and I really like the idea of posting links to SDS on other sites as well.

Agreed, we do need to network more and cross-coordinate with the other KP fan sites. Ok, so I know of SDS and MKP (but I'm not sure what MKP is exactly). What other sites are out there, and what are our contacts?

I had this whole thing (and then some) typed out but lost the window, so I had to type it out again. I probably missed a few things that were in the first one, so please point out if I didn't answer something that I should have, thanks. I can only make time to post in one messageboard only, and I chose RS.Net. Yeah, I understand how that goes. I'm I to understand if I'm reading this the right way, only 67 people sent a total of 3164 e-mails. Just so everyone knows: Unique Users = number of human beings that sent one or more emails with the SDS email program Total Usage = Number of "sets" of emails sent. (Or put another way, number of times the "send button" was clicked.) Grand Total Sent = Total number of emails sent by the program. Up to 46 emails per set, for a max of 230 per user. Actually, I was thinking about it earlier today in class. Considering we only had four days notice, and it was Easter Sunday, um .... 3100 emails isn't that bad. Final Numbers for Sunday: Grand Total Unique Users: 26 Grand Total Usage: 67 Grand Total Sent: 3164 Numbers for Today, so far: Grand Total Unique Users: 12 Grand Total Usage: 37 Grand Total Sent: 1541 We did quite good for the first one of these in over a year. We should have another in a little over a month. If anyone has any good ideas for a meaningful date, I'd like to hear them. (Email would probably be best. ) I say we cease fire until the next SaveKP day. I'm actually shocked SDS ordered the bombardment for an extra 24 hours. Yeah... Red PMed me if we should extend the event into Monday and I replied to him something like "I already told people who couldn't email on Sunday that they could still send their messages on Monday." So he took that to mean "Full frontal attack on Monday!" LOL Once it was out there, I didn't want to rescind it. Agreed, we do need to network more and cross-coordinate with the other KP fan sites. Oh, don't I know it. KP Legacy Day one was announced on SDS on March 23rd. In fact, here's the link: forum.savedisneyshows.org/viewtopic.php?t=2167Of course, not that many of you are my forum, and I don't do a good job of getting this news posted over here. I simply don't have time to post it here and every other board in the world. That's why I'm trying to get as many KP fans as possible to subscribe to my new mailing list: [ur]http://savedisneyshows.org/list[/url] Once enough people do so, then I can make all my announcements to the list, and the users on the list can forward relevant information to all other KP fans that want to know, but don't want to join the list for whatever reason.

Those are good numbers for the Legacy Day. I'm proud to have been part of it.
As for next month... I really think it should be just in the middle of the month, like May 15th
and then on June 7th we have another day. I mean, June 7th. June 7th is like... Easter in some respects for us.

Yeah, I think I found it earlier today. But we definitely need a better strategy. We need a two-pronged attack. One towards Disney, another towards ABC Family to pick up KP if Disney won't go for a S5 w/ college We need to do more than just email. Numbers are great, but probably writing actual physical letters, and maybe a few calls to Disney (go over what to say in these calls before we make them). Using cell phones to call would be best, since most people have free long distance with cell phones We need to come up with a variety of letters to address each issue that we want. Namely, S5, Box sets, more / better merchandise made for the older teen / adult audience. We need to find out some of the statistics on how well S4 is doing compared to the rest of the Disney animated shows, against non-Disney animated shows, and against Disney live-action shows. Get personal. Feel free to write personal reflections on how KP has influenced your life for the better. If someone has some really awesome contacts, spreading the word onto various children's organizations would be nice. I mean, if KP is the positive role model we keep saying she is, why should we be the only ones to benefit? This idea will probably be the hardest. Finally. NETWORKING. We have to get a lot better organized and work together with all of the KP fan sites to make sure we can get ahold of every willing KP fan to help in the cause. Am I missing anything?

Is SDS the main site that we can work from, like a hive mind, and then have people relay information from that site to the rest?
(Sorry for the Borg reference, it was the only thing I could think of, since we do have to work collectively on this one)

SDS is the Central Command that supply us men with information on ratings,viewings etc and dates for the SaveKP day and etc.So yes they are the hive mind and people have used the information provided by the SDS community in their emails and sites.

Finally. NETWORKING. We have to get a lot better organized and work together with all of the KP fan sites to make sure we can get ahold of every willing KP fan to help in the cause. As I said, the new system will work if enough people are involved in relaying information. In a perfect world, everyone in the world join a single forum or group or mailing list, but that's never gonna happen. It's best to do it through SDS. Yes. And that way everyone gets counted in our own user count as well.

Makes sense. Ok, so then do we have contacts between SDS and the rest of the fan sites out there?

Or June 6th the longest day, the anniversary of D-Day Other ideas, we can paper their office with faxes. I remember seeing some on SDS but they may have to be updated. I'm trying to come up with a business size card that my nieces can hand out in school to help pick up some support. "We want you to help KP" "KP needs your help" something along this line on one side and the other the address to the email link.

I went to go check out AJM STUDIOS.NET... and... well, it didn't seem like anyone was doing anything. Heres the link to their season 4 thread usaspatriot.proboards38.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=1133247259&page=34Mabey someone can go there and convince them to help out, I tried, but they were more into enjoying the rest of the fourth season, and then possibly acting later if they thought they shoul. I think there are a lot of fans over there. I'm new to these forums, and am not sure how to get intouch with the "heads of the forums".

Ah, Anitrain, feel free to put my e-mail addres in that list. I'd love to get up to date info from SDS.
I'll see what I can do in the forum you suggested, tenn.
