Good question. Maybe they know the finalists and are getting every finalist set up so that they can easily activate the acceptance forms for whoever the DoD picks? It's what I would do if I didn't know who actually won. Also, this is taken with a grain of salt because we don't know the veracity of alcoholistic's report (no offense), or whether SysPlus is just covering their asses by blaming the DoD for their own delays.
We'll find out.....eventually!
Us waiting in 100 years -> ?

Man, if even SysPlus doesn't know who won, that sure as hell puts a nail in the coffin of our "the dates mean something" theory, at least for the different dates in April.
No, I'm sure that dude is just laughing his invisible head off. "I don't need to condemn grad students to hell. They do it to themselves!"
I'd argue that it means nothing for the dates in general, if they don't know who won then why would updates on their system indicate winners?

Snare, snare? I have no snare in my NDSEG app.
Yeah, there we go. Ready?
Waiting around for my final application decision
NDSEG fellowship, we ain't in a competition
~December Gang~ dawg we're just clownin around
No sysplus updates since Santa came to town
My application was focused, my proposal was sick,
April updates can suck my big fat....nahhhhh
it's all good cuz we're brothers and sisters in this
it's a war with institutions and academia and shit
Don't let your self worth be defined by a yes or no online

Has anybody organized this by the BAA? I'm curious if there's a trend there.

Am I the only one with a January update (01/27) lol
Ha that's a new one!

Wow, so I guess we were correct. It seems like those who did get later updates are more likely to win (with the NSF and Ford awards)
I think it's more of a combination between agency and field, there are some counterexamples on that spreadsheet who got NSF but are waiting in December Gang!

Interesting. Seems that half of us are stuck in 12/__ update, and half have been updated to 4/__

Still Dec. 24. I'm ARO, Mech. Eng. Maybe the comment about it being specific to each discipline and agency makes some sense.

I emailed the project manager a few days ago regarding time-frame (when the front page changed to the COVID-19 update), and here is what they responded with this morning:
"Thank you for reaching out about the anticipated award notification for the FY2020 NDSEG Fellowship. The decisions are currently underway, and are expected to be finalized no later than 13 April 2020. You can expect to see notification in your email no later than 15 April 2020 regarding your selection status for the Fellowship."
I hope this is useful, and helps people step away from this process for a few days as it sounds like we still have a few days to go.
Also, my partner works in database systems and 1) thinks this thread is hilarious and 2) says the dates most likely mean very little in terms of being chosen. They could be wrong, but the outside perspective is amusing.
Interesting they say "the decisions are underway".........that's a whole can of worms.

It means that you will win free bitcoins at a cryptocasino ! But seriously, don't worry about it. All it means is that they are hard at work. They will get the results in a few days. We've waited too long. We can wait a few more days. This thread has taught me that reading into something with half baked knowledge is never a good idea.
Edit: And no, my date is still 12/24
In the 12/24 boat too, I think this thread is driving us all crazy.
