I got an auto-refresh extension for chrome.  ? 

hahaa, this can effectively lead to DDoS attack on their server, if many of us here start using auto-refresh plugin with a short time-interval.

Also, be aware that if there are too many requests from an IP, their server could potentially ban that IP.

Its set for every 5 min.  Not a short refresh interval.  I just get notified every 5 minutes to resubmit the form.

Yeah...welll engineering degrees are one of the few where you can be a professional and a relatively well paying job after undergrad or masters......the number of Canadian PhD students in Mech/Civil/EE is likely lower than the rest of disciplines....take my buddy for example...he went straight to Seattle and started working for MS out of his EE degree....why should he bother with NSERC and go through this torture?

Is there a rule that we are not supposed to publicly announce we are winners (with our actual name) until the final results are released?  I thought I read this somewhere.

(if we get the scholarship)
