That's not going to work. The only campaign picking up any kind of mass interest is the Surfin Bird one. There's a few others but they don't have enough support.
I was going to say it's too premature, but Sunday's sales, I believe, roll over to next week's chart which is the week for Christmas number 1 (since Christmas is on a Saturday, there's only 1 wee left of the charts prior to Christmas)

Just copied this from the Facebook page:
From NOW until the end of Saturday 18th December at 23:59. According to the Official Charts Company, the chart runs from 00:01 on the Sunday NOT Monday as is most assumed.
I just hope that the support doesn't get split between too many alternatives and the dreaded XF sneaks the win!

Aye, this is why digital downloads are now usually released the day before the physical CD.
Your last point is the only thing which is going to ruin this years campaign.

Number 1 on Amazon and climbing on iTunes. Rose to number 32 already
Lets hope it's sales keep above the X-Factors lot, but Surfin Bird has had a day in advance, so even if we see the X-Factor at number 1 tomorrow it's not all doom and gloom!

I won't be buying the winners single because I find all the finalists bland and uninteresting and I suspect I'll find the single bland and uninteresting too!
Actually, having thought about this a little more.
The problem with this Say it's a No thing is that it's X Factor related. Thereby giving XF just more publicity.
I think the point of the campaign is to get something to No 1 over Christmas which has nothing whatsoever to do with XF. We've had several years of XF dictating the Christmas no.1, time to get the X out of Xmas!!

I'm like THE biggest XF fan on the planet lol but if 1D win I'd rather have Surfin' Bird at number 1! If they win, I will buy SB because they were awful last night, they murdered Your Song and it hasn't even gone up on iTunes which I thought would be the only good point!

Need more people to buy it
Also bought a few more to send to friends instead of Christmas cards! (cheaper and more fun.....)

Already up to 22 on iTunes and still number 1 on Amazon!
Fingers crossed it'll be twice in a row
the campaigns are rather pathetic.
It's good, I quite like that.
But it's come out too late to have much impact this year. They should keep it back for next year and start building a following earlier.
The Bird's the one that's flying (sorry, couldn't resist) now and we don't need anything to split the support.
Each to their own

I think the campaigns are fun
The campaigns are great. It is the majority saying to Cowell we hate your shows and we hate what they represent and do to the music industry.
Download 'Say It's A No'...it's perfect.

bird has over 600,000 people behind it, much like rage last year
But it takes the
