Humulus_lupulus Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 I think it is pretty well established that it is going to be tonight (i.e. tomorrow in the early morning hours). One of the times I despise being on the east coast--that and late sporting events are a real drawback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geographyrocks Posted March 30, 2015 Author Share Posted March 30, 2015 Is the release time in Eastern Standard Time? If it is, I might end up staying up after all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tulips Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Since so many people are anticipating the release being tonight, I feel like it's going to end up being tomorrow night instead, just so it can torture us some more. katsharki3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nsf_weiner Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 It will not be tonight, because NSF is the biggest troll! dstock and krizzle 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhDerp Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Is the release time in Eastern Standard Time? If it is, I might end up staying up after all... Eastern Daylight Time, but yeah, Eastern Time! I only point this out because I just learned the difference this past year, after travelling cross-country to my program and learning about Arizona's weirdness. Yes, I'm an adult.

HockeyNerd Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 (edited) so is it not coming out tonight since there isn't a maintenance message on the GRFP Fastlane? *clearly already losing it Edited March 31, 2015 by HockeyNerd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbolya1 Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 let's wait and see if the notice goes up at 10 pm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humulus_lupulus Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 so is it not coming out tonight since there isn't a maintenance message on the GRFP Fastlane? *clearly already losing it The message is up there...

HockeyNerd Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 The message is up there... You scared me for a minute. only on the main fastlane page which isn't normally how it happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmojo Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 only on the main fastlane page which isn't normally how it happens I'll recap. You are correct this isn't normally how it happens. BUT the NSF operator message said it would be released in the next 2 days when a previous poster called today. This year the largest number of people applied so they have a larger task to do so they may need to take the whole website down, or they could just be changing it up cause they can. Results have always been released Tuesday or Fridays. Hence the panic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HockeyNerd Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Yeah I get you, I was just hoping for something more concrete. Actually I just want the results now. Maybe they just enjoy our pain, I'll just stress eat some more cheesy broccoli and avoid finishing my poster with all you lovelies while we wait.

commodork Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 We should start taking bets on when it'll be up, Hopefully it goes a little better than my bracket this year. HockeyNerd and tulips 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thissiteispoison Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 I was trying really hard not to care, but here I am. I love the fact that 190 people are in this thread haha. Someone should open up a Google hangout or something to pass the time. I definitely won't be staying up though. I value my sleep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MissData Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 I feel like last year they were super behind what they said they would do, what with the government shutdown and everything. I am very hesitant to believe it will be out "before" early April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tulips Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Since they apparently said "within two days" when someone inquired earlier today, I'm more inclined to think it'll be released tomorrow night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wopr6753 Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Since they apparently said "within two days" when someone inquired earlier today, I'm more inclined to think it'll be released tomorrow night. While I agree, NSF has released on a Tuesday or a Friday (early morning) pretty consistently since 2008. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissData Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 6am EST on a Tuesday is pretty standard. Though, the government doing anything before they are expected to, very unstandard. We'll see which one wins out. tulips 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tulips Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 While I agree, NSF has released on a Tuesday or a Friday (early morning) pretty consistently since 2008. True, true. Let's hope they stay consistent. I think I need to ban myself from the internet for the next few hours so I don't drive myself crazy checking here/email/FastLane.
