zhaskin Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Ok guys, remember the "This is Norway" video? I have some Norwegian friends, and one is competing in a large competition. His Twitter status: "Had fish for lunch again. Never change a winning strategy!" Of course, we like the fish, with a piece of cheese... while wearing skis at birth... and kicking hats off sticks... This is Norway! medizumbacist 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eesti Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 (edited) Almost two weeks after after seeing other candidates notified for Estonia my advisor learned that because of sequestration applicants to Estonia are being informed on a 'phased' basis. In, other words, they are waiting until they are sure they have the money before they are saying anything. Edited May 14, 2013 by eesti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, hopefully more funding will come in...I am rooting for you and everyone else still waiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krys315 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Ah, okay. They made alternates from other countries submit an official statement of interest about why they should be recommended for Brazil. I guess your apps already made that case I called in today to try and confirm that my letter was received (I was really paranoid), and she said they were processing over one hundred applications, so I'm wondering how many were included in the new round... hopefully closer to 100 than 200! WOW!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfnsprite Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Really, Switzerland? Really? Yeah no kidding. At this point I can't help but wonder if something really, really wrong is happening. I get more pessimistic every day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
