Would someone call President Obama and ask him, "does the international date line kick in around Hawaii?" If it does then you are a day ahead of yourself there. You see he has a certificate that proves that he was located there for a while and thus knows such things. LOLI'm late to this party but have some info and a question. How was the final number of 33,226 determined? I received an e-mail confirming my $1000 "all in" order on September 1, at 11:53 pm Hawaii time. I was there on vacation at the time. My order confirmation e-mail says my order number 100033113 was placed on September 2 at 5:00:08 AM EDT (that would be 9/2 at 12:00:08 AM Hawaii time). This seemed odd; the confirming e-mail was received 7 minutes prior to the time the order was supposedly placed! Upon receipt of EM's e-mail, I responded noting that I placed the order at the very end of September 1 (for my local time), but my receipt showed my order was placed on 9/2, and asked that they confirm that my order would be eligible for the 50% bonus. I have not yet received a reply.
My order number is 113 lower than the "final" number listed in this thread. Is the "final" number official? Does the final number mean that my order will be counted among those eligible for the 50% bonus? Any info on this issue will be appreciated.
P. S. Lyle, I'm betting you will get the credit. Congratulations on getting in.
