I'm glad someone still has a sense of humor, cause I sure don't.

I know it's April Fools Day, but that was a dick move.

Yeah... I was waiting for those. I expect they will post agina like last year if they send out awards today. I also do not think we will hear anything today since they said in a couple of days. Maybe sometime next week.

And the wait continues...

jramcam, I try to always identify myself and will register on the site if selected but until then I am a guest. Literaly I am just visiting until they call my name.

The sad thing is I was reading this knowing it was April Fools day and it still got me. Time to get my heart shocked back into rhythm.

Seriously guys chill. Someone was bound to make the joke. And it's not like he said "oh they only took 175 people" which would have been believable and stressful. Just have a little chuckle and continue about your day. Plus, I'm tired of checking updates when all they contain are complaints about an april fools joke destined to happen that didn't even have people going for more than a few minutes if that.

I hope it is because they are busy putting the personalized notification e-mail packages together!

Just a hunch, but can anyone else login to their SMART application? maybe something big is going on there.... I can't log in, but I could until now...

I noticed that too.
Hopefully their servers crashed and they lost all applications and award lists and will now have to award the scholarships based on who has been checking this site repeatedly for the past few weeks.

(Just a little wishful thinking)
