I don't think this means the people handling results work weekends, just website managers.

Surely it's a pre-programmed management action lol

Do you know about the success rate of Humboldt Research fellowship? Is it worth it to apply?

I think that it is pretty normal to try to run IT system upgrades on weekends when people are not conducting normal business.

so that's a no on a status change today I guess...
Another week of inaction. This is my third year trying for this fellowship (and last, either way), you would think I would be used to it by now, but still I get hopeful each time . . .

Here is link which suggests 25-30 % success rate:

Good! I did not try Humboldt because I don't have any connections in Germany (I emailed a few potential supervisors, but no replies).
However, I tried the FWO (Flanders) and NWO (Netherlands). Did anyone try those? FWO has a success rate similar to Humboldt, while NWO is similar to the MSCA one.

^^yes fwo. It’s 1/3 acceptance rate from what they told me. Although this year for their PhD candidates they made them do a 1 minute speech of their project due to online covid interviews. Seems impossible, hope they don’t decide this for post docs...
