I think he meant that posts indicating agreement using the "+1" format should always be "+1," not "+1," "+2," etc.

I don't think it really matters either way, but it helps Jam to think of the internet in terms of simple rules he can remember.

It's the generally accepted way of doing it. It doesn't really matter; I was just giving him crap

I don't know if its better or worse to be living abroad through this wait. The days are long and frustrating because I know there is no chance I'll hear while I'm awake. But then I get to sleep through the brutal "will they or won't they update statuses today?" period, wake up, check TLS and be done with it.

+1

Lol Jam, just click once next time.

You don't want to be asking Jam how the internet works. I've discovered that he's not exactly the best with technology.

hahahaha.

Haha, I like how I just got back to all of this. I actually thought as I was clicking submit "I wonder if this will bother someone... Oh well, I'm feeling enthusiastic, so +2 it is!"

Oh Internet...

Is it true that if your status checker changes to decision letter sent and you don't get an email, then you can assume you got in? (since I'm hearing that they do denials/WLs by email and acceptances by regular mail)

also wondering if this is true? or if maybe they send an e-mail to applicants living abroad? mail from the states typically takes 2-3 weeks to get here... i'm pretty sure seeing my status checker at decision made and then having to wait on the Chinese postal system to find out what the decision was would drive me completely insane.

[thatkid]

I believe the general consensus is that if your status changes in the first few days of decisions, you're almost certainly in. A quick scan of LSN shows no one got rejected before ~Dec. 18, and those rejections seemed limited to ED applicants, whom they had to inform by the end of the month. Personally, I'm holding off on celebrating until the envelope comes, just to be on the safe side, but I think we can all be pretty confident when the status changes.

I think the status on your online status checker changes to "decision letter sent" before you get the letter in the mail. If you're in the tri-state area maybe your mail would come first, but last year tons of the LSN admits reported the status change before they received anything.

[thatkid]

Aren't we pretty sure status checkers will update a few days before the arrival of the coveted purple envelope? The mail doesn't mean no news!! I hope?

That's what happened last year, but that's the only sampling we have.

I am in the tri-state area so that's what I was hoping, but c'est la vie.

Well with a KB1 on deck, I doubt you have much to worry about anyway! Congrats!

[Hawkeye Pierce]

Might still be a bit early for changes to the status checker, based on last year.

Please, please, please!
