nepenthes Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 9:39 ET right here in PA. Just took my prescribed ambien so I can sleep through the nervousness. But! It might be an interesting experiment to see if I can try my damndest to stay awake all night on sedatives. CHALLENGE ACCEPTED, NSF!! (prepare for a barrrage of loopy posts, to keep you entertained tonight) =D
williamtenk Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 Good luck in tonight's graduate student "lottery" drawing!

Tonight = announce winners Sunday = upload rating sheets ? where did you see this? I don't see the maintenance notice on the site!
mrcrzister Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 where did you see this? I don't see the maintenance notice on the site! Check it here: https://www.fastlane.nsf.gov/index.jsp
Jimbo2 Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 the maintenance notices are on https://www.fastlane.nsf.gov/index.jsp and the bottom is speculation
mrcrzister Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 I think this is going to be a FALSE alarm. But I still have hope!
illini2015 Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
schoolpsych_hopeful Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 AUGGHH. YOU GUYS. IT'S ONLY AN HOUR AWAY. an hour until maintenance, lol. much more than an hour until the list gets posted (if it even is tonight).
Jimbo2 Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 Im tempted to call the NSF GRFP headquarters and if anyone picks up just go AH-HA! and hang up. TXTiger2012, wsoltau, nepenthes and 2 others 5
Nic42 Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 I think this is going to be a FALSE alarm. But I still have hope! Seriously, bro. If this is a false alarm, I will be SO INCREDIBLY PISSED. nepenthes 1

Jimbo2 Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 53 minutes and i better not be able to load fastlane
syn2012 Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 haha everyone is leaving, this is a trolll Hahahahaha. All the guests were FastLane admins.
elinos Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 I'm going to keep my hopes up.. because this is more fun WITH the group panic, than without it! (i.e individual panic)
gelaface Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 Hahahahaha. All the guests were FastLane admins. Lol! That would be so sad. I had mentally prepared for it being next week, but then I lurked excessively on this thread and now...spaz time. Glad we are all here together though!
Jimbo2 Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 indeed. what's everyone applying in? i'm doing ecology, which is scary because that's a huge field and my reviewers might not be as familiar with my focus as they could be (then again, this could work both ways, e.g., my terrible ideas sounding genius to someone unfamiliar with the field)
mrcrzister Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 Fastlane/GRFP used to announce awards in late March (a couple of years ago) so there is still a chance....
