792553 - Date on social links (Oct 22nd deadline) does not match text on main page (Oct 5th deadline)

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

Steps to reproduce:

Related to: Bug 790979 - [Join Mozilla]: Mozilla Festival Contest QA (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=790979)

After making a donation, I get taken to a series of social links (Twitter, Facebook, Email) these give me a pre-populated message.


Actual results:

The messages were: 
Win a trip to #MozFest in London this November! Donate before October 22 for a chance to be part of the awesomeness. http://bit.ly/R558uW

Donate before October 22nd and you'll be automatically entered into our first drawing to win a trip to London for the Mozilla Festival in November. Don’t miss a chance to be part of the open web’s coolest festival. http://bit.ly/R54X2w


Expected results:

But the main page encourages a donation before October 5th. "Donate before October 5th† and you'll be automatically entered into our first drawing to win a trip to London for the Mozilla Festival in November." 

Should the social links should indicate Oct 5th too?

This is actually fine -- there are two drawings (which is why it says :our first drawing" on the main page). We'll update the dates on the main pages after the first deadline passes, but just wanted to stick with the final date on all the ancillary text.

That said, the final deadline is actually October 20th, not 22nd, so we do need to update all of those!

Makes sense.
