 +==== AxaMonitor's Reporting ====
 +
 +  * **January 28**: We report a [[patreon_progress|disturbing trend]] — growth in patrons was heading in the wrong direction, sliding into single digits, while donation growth was flattening.
 +  * **February 9**: After the Patreon grinds to zero, we report [[pokey_patreon|sluggish growth]] isn't likely to garner enough funds to keep the current warehouse. Peters announces he's moving to a smaller facility.
 +  * **February 11**: Several encouraging upswings [[spurring_donations|don't really improve]] the trend line.

 +===== Marathon Data =====
  
 +{{::feb_15_projection.jpg?direct|}}
 +<fs smaller>**CURRENT DATA** shows no signs of any change in the trends, projecting the campaign's take by April 1, just a month before the move, looks like it'll hover around $2,500, about 63 percent of Peters' $4,000 goal.</fs>
