there's no place for insults here, olde english or not. isnt friar tuck supposed to be a chill guy?

oh gotcha. i dont come on here for half a day and the number of posts have doubled to 30 pages. ridiculous! this is way more than last year's page count. glad this forum is on the ball

now the fastlane website doesnt have the list of 2008 award winners either for me - "2008 Offered Award List * The list of Awardees and Honorable Mention recipients for the year you have selected is not yet available." just an update.

i remember it only had "Application Package Task List" before, but now it has both that and the Application Package Optional Task List. who knows, i could be way off.

k so unless i'm delusional by logging in so many times, i think the log in screen for fastlane may be slightly different for me. now i get: Application Package Task List Application Package Optional Task List View/Print Application Download Request for Payment of GRE Subject Test Fee Check Application Package Status don't know if this was here before tho. i'll update if anything else weird pops up.

friar.tuck, are you a troll from the nsf? i can see right through you baby!

fastlane main page says there's a delay until early april.

So there were two ways that I read: 1. [this will drive you insane] Use your username/pwd to incessantly check the status of your application. You could get some changes in the status if you get the award letter. But this doesn't happen for everybody at the same time, so people apparently freaked out. 2. [this happens a few days later in the process] Edit the local html code for this award list page https://www.fastlane-beta.nsf.gov/grfp/AwardeeList.do?method=loadAwardeeList such that 2009 is part of the years drop-down menu. Then incessantly select 2009 and submit to see if the list is put up. You can do this with web development kit addons for Firefox like Firebug. Gluck all! Try not to let the anticipation get to you
