Nrrrdgrrrl Posted April 14, 2014 Author Share Posted April 14, 2014 Feels like this long... MJGonzo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJGonzo Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Well, if we're going to nerd out over it, I would like to offer the Bene Gesserit litany against fear: I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
padthai234 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 seriously... is it possible they wont tell us today? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrrrdgrrrl Posted April 14, 2014 Author Share Posted April 14, 2014 seriously... is it possible they wont tell us today? Technically, according to the website and round 2 letters, we could hear as late as mid-June. Although they generally have gotten results back before the next deadline, they leave themselves plenty of room for that to NOT happen. I'm praying this isn't one of those times...

Nrrrdgrrrl Posted April 14, 2014 Author Share Posted April 14, 2014 Should we abandon all hope and just go live real life? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
padthai234 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Someone should email and ask if they plan to deliver results before the next round... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mata Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Let's e-mail them to say: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJGonzo Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Can we ask them... I really wish Liz Lemon would speak to WG on our behalf. I'm afraid to call, since the first letter said not to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrrrdgrrrl Posted April 14, 2014 Author Share Posted April 14, 2014 How can we email anonymously?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_ginger_ Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 You could create a new, anonymous email account to email them from, but I'm not sure if they'd respond to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrrrdgrrrl Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 You could create a new, anonymous email account to email them from, but I'm not sure if they'd respond to that. I doubt it. I wonder if they have any idea what they put us through... I'm beginning to feel like this is an unhealthy relationship. But, you know, all of this agony will be forgotten in a second when people start getting money! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
far_to_go Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I am feeling strongly ambivalent about this one. I both want to know and don't want to know whether I got it. It's like, until I get the e-mail, the Wenner-Gren is both alive and dead to me. I have Schrodinger's anxiety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nrrrdgrrrl Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 Magic. Or, find the one you want and copy image, then paste. Very easy! Konstantin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moraurora Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 ok this might a little bit paranoid, but i just re-read that first round notification letter (february 14th). it says that they would be in touch with us in three to four months. i havent paid attention to this before, thinking that they would let us know anyways in two months. but if they mean what they wrote, then we won't be hearing back before may 15th. is this what they usually say in first-round letters? any ideas?

I don't know about what they said last time, but last year they announced first round February 7, and second round April 8. Following that model, we could find out today...

far_to_go Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 For what it's worth, I applied for the May 1 2013 deadline, got notified that I'd passed the first round on August 1, and got the rejection e-mail on Oct 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a little paranoid, but it is technically possible. However, in the past, final notifications are out before the next deadline...hopefully they stick to that pattern!
