There is also the option of making your donation a "Buzzer Beater."

What that means is that (up until about the last hour) you can donate the amount that you want to donate, and click the "Buzzer Beater" option. Publically, only half of your donation will be visible, but at 7:45PM, the rest of your donation will go through. Currently we can see that we have 9 Buzzer Beaters pending for 7:45 tonight, but we can't tell which donations those are attached to.

It definitely makes the last 15 minutes intense!

UPDATE: Indiana Sports Corp has jumped up past the $1,400 mark. They just brought in a $500 donation, which may be a buzzer beater, doubling it to $1,000.

This means that they are only about $600 behind us. It might seem like a lot, but in this competition, that is a small margin.

There's less than two hours to score points for IndianaFIRST. Our teams would love if you could donate to them. 32 teams are working on coming up with State Championship registration, and they would really appreciate your support if you can afford it. http://frc-districtrankings.firstinspires.org/2016/IN

Make sure to watch the countdown at 7:45! https://indianapolis.bfg.org/matchup/indianafirst-inc

With a little under a half hour to go, our opponents have jumped within $320 of us! It's getting tense. https://indianapolis.bfg.org/matchup/indianafirst-inc

Anyone else see that last 15 seconds or so! I'm 19 and I almost had a heart attack...
