  4/4 might be worth thinking about if you're considering an earlier date.

  A '4' can by stylised as an 'A'

  And there's plenty of words/phrases that would rhyme with four.

  with today's events the message and tone of this video makes a lot more sense.

  thus the defeated, failing, delivery.. http://tv.jw.org/#video/vodprogramsevents/pub-jwbmw_201509_1_video.

  it had a purpose.

  I'm surprised that video ended up on the site. It's almost like it's been put out there to discredit him. It's clear he does not actually believe what he is saying. Terrible delivery. I think they perceive the game's up.

  'The silent speak' has a certain ring to it.

  Could be a strap line.

  It's coming together :)

  'world wide' slipped back in there ;)

  It might be worth having a number of topic based paragraphs that people can copy as some issues will matter to some more than others.

  It's critical there's something 'local' in the letter so the elders know it's come from their congregation, not just a generic mass mail.

  Good work in pulling this together!

  freemindfade: I think we want to save the disassociate bit for a little bit. I think we should get the date viral at first, that something big in exjw land is brewing and planned for this date

  I like your thinking. In the months before Ghostbusters was released they ran a teaser campaign 'Coming soon to save the world' with an image and nothing more than that. People were wondering what it was all about.Piques curiosity.

  8/8 works worldwide - someone (not me) already mentioned that.

  11/25 is meaningless outside America as most of the world uses date before month. Only Belize, Federated States of Micronesia, and United States put the month first.

  EdenOne: What I think is vital is that ONE LETTER = ONE REAL PERSON. No letters in the name of others, and no making of letters of fake people just to inflate numbers.

  Absolutely agree!

  I think this is critical otherwise it will just be dismissed as some apostates causing trouble.

  I think we are trying to achieve the same outcome and only differ slightly in our suggested approach. I'm saying just to include some local reference so they know it's been sent locally. e.g. reference to a particular brother giving a talk perhaps, just something small and incidental so the elders reading it know it's come from within the congregation, but they have no idea who.

  My concern is that if you start adding in any specifics they will be more likely to go on a witch hunt - so my thoughts are, don't put the clues there to encourage them to even begin with.

  
  

  Zoos: We we could have a picture of happy ex-JWs skipping about and eating fruit in the foreground, with a picture of Watchtoer HQ burning in the background and regular pioneers with late model 4-door sedans falling into a cravass.

  LOL There definitely needs to be some fruit :D

  EdenOne: I’ve been a baptized Jehovah’s Witness for over 99 years. I’m currently an active / an inactive Publisher / Regular Pioneer / Ministerial Servant / Elder / Circuit Overseer / Bethelite, assigned to a congregation in state / country.

  You've got to be careful about encouraging people to be too specific otherwise:

  • the elders will quickly narrow down who has sent the letter, and for some people that could be detrimental; or
  • people will choose not to participate.

  I'd suggest being completely vague about who you are, but definitely include something about the congregation so they know for sure it's come from someone in the congregation.

  freemindfade: The silent will speak The sleeping will awake

  I think there's something very powerful in the use of the word 'silent'. Putting them on notice that people are present but choosing to be silent is a powerful message to send through the ranks.

  There's power in anonymity. And we also know how WT hates Anonymous.
