Good idea, we can do this. We’ll probably write a retro post at the end and this can be one of the stats we include.
From eyeballing the amounts we have been sent, it looks like the bulk of the pot is made up of large donations (>=$250), and these aren’t clustering around the reward amount of $250. I would also guess (based on very little) that, especially for the flair, there is a large second order effect of increasing the general awareness of the donation election and this nudges other people to donate.
Agree re: the likelihood of a second order awareness / social proof impact. An absence of clustering would make me think the second-order effect was the predominant one, which would be useful info for designing rewards for future fundraisers.
