So far it seems as if there are only two members who have reported instances of individuals not moving on to DC? Both situations involved emails that were sent on 8/8/21016. Has anyone heard of a notification that went out on 8/9 or 8/10?
For those who have been through this process does it usually take a period of days for notifications? It seems that when we got our notices that we were going on to online testing that everyone got them in a day or two. Since fewer people need to be notified than during the first round, it seems odd that the notifications are taking longer.
Bump.

Or FOAC? Instead of die, convalesce, since there's always next time ...

Bump. I have been gotten a private message from another board member, that a colleague had been emailed that they were't going to DC. He didn't want to post because he was afraid that his post could identify his colleague. Unfortunately, there is more confirmation that this has happened.

Did he mention when his colleague received the email?

So I am freaking out a little bit because over last couple days I have had difficulty with my emails. Not all of them -- hit or miss. ALthough come to think of it it is only one lawyer claiming to not get my discovery responses I thought it was all OK but now a little paranoid that I may have gotten the dreaded email and missed it somehow. Ugh! Lets hope not.

I was hoping all of the cuts took place on 8/8 and 8/9 so we could take comfort in not having received the dreaded email. I know that was unrealistic, but we can hope, can't we?

I was troubled to hear that this last email was received today as I am certainly feeling that I am not yet out of the woods myself.

The lack of significant numbers of reports from board members makes me wonder if they are only at the beginning of getting the rejection notices out as opposed to nearing the end. Heaven forbid if these notices trickle in for the next week or more. I prefer to think that everyone on the board made it through and the real wait is for our DC invites!

As awesome as we all are, it doesn't make sense that the numbers for FOASH letters are so low. I don't think anyone can feel safe until that invite arrives. I hope invites go out soon, especially for those who need to book flights.

I'm sensing some situational burbon in the near future for quite a few people...
Including me!

The who are we poll indicated that there are only about 50 of us 16 applicants active on this board. That is a very small percentage of the total applicants. I don't think we will be able to ascertain any useful info based on what we know about FOASH emails going out. Only when people start reporting invites will we know that this danger zone has been navigated.

Gosh, what a downright, screwy, awful, and torturous process. Str8 up violation of the 8th. I can't stand the fact that the FOASH or TBK or FTS (F*** this Sh**) letters are not all sent out at one time, and instead may be trickling. What in FOAD's hellaciousness is this.

If rejections continue to trickle out at the current pace, OPM continues to prove they have mastered the art of cruel and unusual punishment.

Since the Class of '16 is in the Care, Custody and Control of OPM, may we assume that the FOASH notifications are completely independent of what the Senior Class is going through with their Cert Notifications?
We 1-L's don't have to wait until the 3-L's are all noticed and sated, do we? So refreshing our Browsers every 6-7 seconds is not a waste of time?
