Its a quest of if SLS changed it to lower case from upper case; its not just a question of if its upper or lower case.

yes, ill be even clearer than i was... friend claims that his checker changed in Nov to lower primary, upper secondary, after previously being upper for each. he's since heard nada. perhaps he's in, strangely hasn't heard, and the case is diagnostic. or perhaps its not diagnostic, in which case the not hearing isn't strange at all.
edit: or perhaps he's bs'ing me for no good reason. also possible.

When is SLS's ASW this year? I've seen conflicting answers on TLS. Thanks.

I know I say this every time lowercase emails happen, but I HATE MYSELF FOR MAKING MY EMAIL LOWERCASE! I'd like to have zero hope. Can I just ask SLS to change my email to uppercase?
5buildingsin1, let us know when you get the call.

Today, my primary email has been changed to lower-case, but my secondary email address is still in all caps.
Has this happened to anybody else?
Has the case-change/acceptance correlation only been verified in scenarios where both emails change, or has it been confirmed for people like me?
(I went complete in mid-January, for what it's worth.)
Party time!!!!!!!!
Edit: I combed through the thread a little more carefully, and it does seem that it's just the primary that changes. Now I'm very excited. I'll be sure to check in tomorrow and let everyone know what happens!
Just got the call! The streak of lower case primary emails lives on!
Edit: 174/3.9. Complete in mid January.

Congrats to everyone!
I've been complete since mid-september, and I just wish SLS didn't wait until April to ding/WL people they've had (I imagine) pegged since December. Some closure would allow me to nail my choice down and start planning, looking apts, etc.

So my email just went to lowercase. Have we determined that this is a myth or is it OK for me to start hyperventilating now? I've been under review since September.

I checked around 3:30 EST this afternoon and it was still all caps. Then I got home about 10 minutes ago, decided to check for kicks and giggles, and saw it had changed.
