So we’re at about 845xxx?

846xxx and nothing here...so going to work.

And it’s 10 minutes past midnight and no one has reported...I’m heading to sleep. Hopefully we will have results by the time I wake up! Good luck all!

I keep refreshing the forum to watch the numbers of guests change At least that’s entertaining.

Why must they start at midnights? It makes me so sleepy trying to stay up to see if they start. Anyone know if they did it at a different time in the past? I know last year it started around midnight and I think they said it did the year before as well.

BTW, I don't think sending emails takes so much time, they can send 1 per second, at the slowest rate, but it should be much faster... piece of cake... Everything else is also automatic, including attachments, etc. and will not take any time... Incorrect due to ISP email limits. We’ve discussed it ...

Just a delicate point :D Here we have seen IDS: first=831*** and last=846*** Last-first = 15000 (roughly) But the number of submitted propsals is less then 10000. How do you interpretate this? People that were autodisqualified? Or equal spacing. I think it’s weird that it starts at 831 anyway.

I’m sleepy already...and we still have 2 hours to go. :/ Blah...I wish I hadn’t even applied at this point. A waste of time and energy.

The releasing of results at midnight sounds stupid because it's very unlikely that they are working hard till midnight to get it ready. I expect some kind of automation to be used to handle this massive number of emails but release it as and when it is ready rather than do it at midnight. What purp...

Well I definitely refer to tables for details. The core text is still written out with reference for details. Ugh could go either way but may be how they hit me for big points. No worries on the footnotes part though. Whatever I’m sure I didn’t get it anyway so I don’t know why I’m even mentally rev...
