DrBones Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Would someone explain the logic again that results won't be posted after noon? I think it would be perfectly reasonable for them to post them at 5:00, and then run out of the office so they don't have to answer our stupid questions. I'm sure the website has 24hour tech support, so why wouldn't they post results whenever they felt like it?

blah2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 I just called that number. There is just a recording asking callers to leave a message. How did you manage to speak to someone?
yakiguri Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 This is so awesome! and the best part is that I'm a mathematician! I need no funding since my department funds me! I just applied to get it on my CV! :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

yakiguri Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 i'm sure they give you all the pencil and paper you need. yup lol

blah2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 I still can't tell if you're kidding or not. Not cool man...=(.
DrBones Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Man, Yakiguri needs some mad knowledge dropped upon him/her. Where are our valiant defenders Friar Tuck and Blackbeard when we need them? *blows the trumpet of all that is just and right*
mtlve Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 This is so awesome! and the best part is that I'm a mathematician! I need no funding since my department funds me! I just applied to get it on my CV! :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: T_ruth can you block the accounts of this person and any other posters that deliberately posts false award notifications?
gb6 Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 if friar and blackbeard don't take care of him, i will...
snowcapk Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Isnt it also possible that none of us "longer posters" got it? This would support my theory that the results are being delayed while NSF tracks down everyone on this message board and removes them from the list.
liatris Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 This is so awesome! and the best part is that I'm a mathematician! I need no funding since my department funds me! I just applied to get it on my CV! :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: That's not very nice now is it? I hope that attitude didn't come across in your application!
bgk Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 How about I just lock this thread? That way you can all calm down for a few minutes. I'll unlock it later.
mechemems Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 since the other one is locked for some ridiculous reason lets do this one... post on NSF GRFP. too bad the other one wont get too 100 pages... can we find out why the other one was locked? because one person posted fake results? thats a little extreme...
blah2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 More importantly, I called the number talked about in that thread. There is no one that picks up but just a recording message asking applicants to leave a message. How were people able to get through?
superchuchubu Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 i agree - how ridiculous!! they have taken away our freedom of speech!!
bgk Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Because the thread was entirely useless. If you want to talk about NSF Grad fellowships then use this thread. If you want to chat use the lobby. If this thread gets derailed too, I'll lock it! :evil: This is not a freedom of speech issue, it's a keep the forum tidy issue.

There is no one that picks up but just a recording message asking applicants to leave a message. How were people able to get through? This is new - someone would always pick up before. Also, the recording, which used to come on after hours, used to say "in early April". Now it says "as soon as possible in April"...
