Model 3 Reservation Tally
It was mentioned in another thread that stores in Melbourne and Sydney actually opened at 8 AM, so that's 3/30/2016 21:00 UTC.

The graph shows reservations started at 0 on Thursday - I assumed the published reservation #s included Tesla and SpaceX employees. So maybe when this graph started it was around 20-30k?
Of course that doesn't change much in terms of the message, and the graph is still super illustrative (and including the first derivative was a great idea)!

Rare combination
I really like that the folks on this site challenge the spacing on the x-axis and note the slope's derivative and that the zero time point may be at 20K. Nice to know that there are some educated and savvy folks out there. Looking at political campaigns, one can get the impression that savvy is dead.

That's the plan.
I'm on vacation, so bear with me on the delayed updates to the graph haha.
EDIT: If reservations started at 3/30/2016 21:00 UTC, then Elon made the 24 hour announcement 32 hours after the zero hour. So should that data point reflect 24 or 32 hours after reservations opened? Perhaps the 24 hour announcement pertains only to in-store reservations.. but I doubt that. The problem here is inconsistent and unclear time data points presented by Elon and Tesla.

Correct. First reservation was in the Melbourne store. They opened the doors at exactly 8:00am Australian Eastern Daylight saving time. The guys walked in, got a photo shaking hands with Heath (Tesla marketing guy), sat down and placed the order: 8:02 AM AEST (daylight savings in effect). I reckon the order process, paying, putting in details, took about 2-3 minutes. They stood up and got a clap from the assembled store staff, took more photos and left the building.

Tesla Model 3 orders now approaching 400K - per Diarmuid O'Connell.
Tesla Vice President says Model 3 reservations are ‘approaching 400,000’, real success will be delivery

Yes... they've now managed to create a golden opportunity. And it's theirs to screw up... or wildly succeed. I'm sure that the manufacturing guys are scared out of their minds at the moment.
