Any word on results from Day of Giving?

Day of Giving is largely nickels and dimes in the bigger picture.

Often those big "Day of Giving" announcements are contrived by big donors holding back the money to consolidate it for a big dramatic announcement when they would have given it anyway.  In fact, you can see that they needed a few days to spin it. We know that a dated digital mechanism for website giving would have known that total at 1:00 a.m. after the "Day."  Of course there could still be paper checks on the way from the vaunted USPS. But you would know with 90% accuracy on the morning after.

I would be really glad to be wrong this year or glad to be wrong about any recent year. After the inevitable "Wow" announcement, maybe someone on the ground can summarize where the "wow" gift total is going?
