I actually found this graph that shows when is the most active times to post on tumblr to get the most notes. People should look at it so you can get an idea of when the best time to post and reblog stuff.

Also, remember tags too. That gets them noticed more.

Hey nevr0s, Have you looked more into making that countdown clock yet?

Yes, I am using a Tumblr blog as a placeholder for it. I just deleted all the code that makes it a blog, and I'm working on creating the countdown. I can probably get it working and looking decently tonight, so we can send the link to people. But after it's done, I'll look at a cheap place to get it hosted with it's own domain name.

Sixseasonsandamovie.com is already taken. Any ideas for the url?

Also, it would be really helpful to have a video on the page: something like a bunch of clips from community ominously (and humurously) talking about the end and the approaching meteor collision, then saying "Only you can stop the meteor, Renew Community, #SIXSEASONSANDAMOVIE". Would anyone want to take charge of making the video?

And then I'll have a place on the page with lists of things to do to support Community, like the signing the petition, tweeting #SIXSEASONSANDAMOVIE, the To-Do Stars, etc.

Sounds great!

Ummmm.... maybe thatscanon.com? I'll keep thinking.

I was planning on doing something like that, and now that I finished getting this lj set up, I'll have more time to do it.

Alrighty! Thanks so much! This is going to be great.

It's probably a good Idea to also reach out to any other 'Community' groups this way we could help spread and strengthen one another's ideas. Sort of like a United Nations.

This link from a previous campaign by the Save Community Now BlogSpot lists sponsors that have aired advertisements during some of this season's episodes as well as those from prior years. As parcae_lj had stated elsewhere "If there's one thing companies love, it's free publicity" so any way we can connect Community to these names is of great benefit to the show. Probably using this information it would be good to transfer the names of these sponsors here, the Facebook page, and Tumblr blog just to increase the amount of people speaking about these companies in the name of Community. And by spreading and reinterpreting another groups initial idea they may in turn help out with some of our ideas in the future, as we all have the same goal in mind and can only make each other's message stronger.

Also, since I'm here these were nevr0s's suggestions from the "Task Wall" (this way ( ... )

Yeah, and maybe we should get a list of the blogs/groups we want to talk to so each ot us can take a couple, and then cross them off the list when we connect with them.

Also I thought it might be a good idea to get more people in on our little committee we've got going. Like people who have done a lot this stuff before, or some artists/vidders/writers, or really anything that they can add to the table. We've got so many good ideas coming together and not much time to do it all in, so maybe getting an official word out that we are looking for people might help. I can make a tumblr post saying "here's what we are looking for" and get that circulating, seeing if we get any responses.

Oh wow, this is a great list that the put together! Yep, I definitely think that we should these sponsors in where ever we can.

Thanks for bringing that over! :)

I've been working on the site for a while today. I forgot how much of a pain spacing things in CSS can be. I've got most of the content up, but it's not finished yet. I still need to make it look good, which I'll do tomorrow.

But in the meantime, here it is.

Anything I should add or change? Anything that should be worded better? And yes, the red borders at the bottom will go away.

Would someone like to make a background for the site? I'm thinking a photoshopped image of Greendale with red skies and a meteor in the sky.

Also, I think it would really help to have a promotional video right beneath the countdown. Is anyone working/willing to work on that?

Looks good! Everything is worded perfectly.

I would do it, the only thing is that I get worried about using copyrited images to make that sort of stuf for something that is going to be seen by a lot of people. I was already thinking about making a tumblr post about looking for artists for certain projects, maybe we could do it for this? Then it would be an original piece for this specifically.

I was gonna work on it. Already got the music picked out. I just want to see if my dad can get aftereffects for me.

Awesome!

I believe using scenes from Community is ok under "Fair Use" as long as we're not selling anything. Original art would be a great addition as well.

And Aftereffects huh? We're getting hella professional here. NBC better watch out.

I just put an post on tumblr about our need for an artist. As much as I'd like to do it, trying to make this video and also kepping up with all our new supporters to add to the list just doesn't leave me with enough time.

Yeah, I want to use this template for the titles.
