scigrad Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 People just keep sending me inane e-mails and I'm like INBOX?!? nope.
t_ruth Posted March 30, 2009 Author Posted March 30, 2009 Ahh! Why are they doing this to us??! and after we were singing their praises at being so kind as to give us a date as opposed to the 'keep them guessing' NSF!
egosumliber Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 Well, we can only hope things are being delayed because they are getting more $$ so that they can then accept more people ... we can dream, right?
sterculus Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 My compulsive refreshing has revealed that they changed the message back to claiming that they'll announce this afternoon...
t_ruth Posted March 30, 2009 Author Posted March 30, 2009 My compulsive refreshing has revealed that they changed the message back to claiming that they'll announce this afternoon... lol! at least they know people are stalking the website.
egosumliber Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 it keeps changing from having "afternoon" to not. what's going on??
sterculus Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 it keeps changing from having "afternoon" to not. what's going on?? I noticed that too...they should stop fiddling with the status message and just send out the damn e-mails already!
egosumliber Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 I am really having trouble doing work... even if I don't get it, I just want to know one way or the other so I don't have to think about it anymore. They should really consider the work efficiency of grad students everywhere when waiting until late in the day to announce....
egosumliber Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 So, based on the thread from last year's NDSEG, there might be rounds of emails going out, with those who are denied finding out later.
blah2009 Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 I don't get it. It's not like everyone will get a response anyways. They are notifying winners. Which means, if you didn't get notified, you are either in limbo or rejected. This waiting process can technically continue till may like last year.
t_ruth Posted March 30, 2009 Author Posted March 30, 2009 BAH! NOW IT SAYS THIS WEEK?!? oh no they did-n't! and what do you mean you won't get notified at all if you don't get it? do they really notify people in May?
scigrad Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 I was reading the thread from last year, and it seems like people were getting "we regret to inform you" letters on the first day of announcements.
kdilks Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 Wow, I just refreshed about 5 times in a row, and got something slightly different each time. Maybe they're just having the site randomly generate a message...
scigrad Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 All I really know is that I want to punch David Kaz right in his smug face.
t_ruth Posted March 30, 2009 Author Posted March 30, 2009 Wow, I just refreshed about 5 times in a row, and got something slightly different each time. Maybe they're just having the site randomly generate a message... I thought that too. quite diabolical...
michigantrumpet Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 All I really know is that I want to punch David Kaz right in his smug face. hahahhahahahah You do realize that's what's gonna come up when you google him pretty soon ;-) And gaaaah. Just send out the e-mails already!
Abraham Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 Back to your books, everyone. "NEW UPDATE - NDSEG Awards will be announced via email this week"
kdilks Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 Just refresh the page a few times, it'll change back to "30th or 31st".
egosumliber Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 Alllright, looks like no go for today. Hopefully we will get results starting tomorrow, it definitely seems like people will get messages in rounds.
scigrad Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 I hope they don't do it alphabetically. My last name starts with W.
egosumliber Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 It still says "this week" for me. I'm pretty sure there are mirrors or something that aren't all getting updated when they update the status, causing us to see different things at different times. At any rate, some people will find out before others, hopefully starting tomorrow.
