Sort of like the original notification It seems like they probably don't know themselves. If they are just waiting for the list of names to come back, they won't know when that is happening. That is my total guess though. sam89 1

Sort of like the original notification It is really torture! At this point even a week interval would be nice. My country released 3/29 last year, then 3/18 the year before, and 4/7 the year before that so I'm just basically refreshing every day
Jess2323 Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Bulgaria has basically only released on Fridays - so Im thinking this Friday could be it.. but then again there are an abnormal number of Fridays this month!
Horb Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 I just had the thought that my power could go out just as I get the email and then I have no way of opening it....
chelslinn Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Made an account just to let you all know that I heard back from Iceland today - alternate. More disappointed than I expected to feel, but that's ok! Big ups to all of you for all the emotional support you've provided each other and me throughout this process. Good luck!!

Lab6214 Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Did you guys see in the spreadsheet that Argentina posted yesterday? If so, I missed the buzz!

So does this mean that Western Hemisphere decisions are beginning to come out? I'm wondering if it's by region or country, since regions seem to come out in bulk. I'm dying out here! jarp729 1
