What a great follow up to the biggest day in MDW history (yesterday). On the 12th, we sold 109 pages. I’ve been working for about 40 hours nonstop, taking a nap for three hours, and taking breaks here and there to eat. Registering 260 accounts in two days is time consuming, and slightly daunting.
The good news is we’re now just about all caught up. It’s always surprising how many people have email addresses that bounce back. Folks, please make sure you can receive emails before making a purchase on MDW. I don’t think that’s asking too much.
Clarifying about the “Recently Purchased” List
Just to clarify, pages are dated on the “Recently Purchased” list when they are registered, not when they are purchased. So even if a page was purchased on the 11th, if it took us until the 12th to register it, it will be dated 9/12 on the list.
Graham, are you tired after pulling a 40 hour shift to register 260 pages?
Tired enough to ask myself questions in my blog…
But yes, I am extremely tired. I have an 8:00AM class tomorrow morning that I will probably skip. I have a 9:30 that I will also probably skip. However, my 11:00 class, Press in America, I will not skip. That class is awesome.

That is an amazing jump in two days, congrats. I am glad to hear you will be attending some of your classes through all of this. Keep up the good work.
Oh I forgot you labeled the post in the 100-500, I think its 500-1000 now. Then next week 1000+ ha. We could only hope.
Great progress for the site and a great class not to skip. Get that press Graham!
Incredible awesome results. This is a case of sucess…don’t give up the idea.
Chalk that labeling mistake up to his tiredness no doubt
Maybe it’s time for you to hire someone to handle incoming registrations for you? This spike in sales may just be how things are going to go for a while now..
Doh! I wish I had held off putting a date for the 10k page pool
In a little over 3 months he’s closing in on 10 percent of his goal and you know it’s just going to keep on steamrolling…
I definitely think it’s time to hire people or delegate the admin work to others, so that you can focus more on promoting the site. You should also try to get some rest…though you are young, you aren’t invincible. =)
Thats great progress in the last few days. Congratulations
I plan on writing a blog post about the million dollar wiki. Check out my blog soon.
I guess it’s true when they say…no pain, no gain!
