to Round 3...And Beyond! Moms Panel Hopefuls and Friends

On my way out!
Taking DS to a Halloween party and have to drive through all the state fair traffic to get there and back. Hopefully pixie dust will be flying by the time I can check back in. Have fun waiting!
 
It can't be too long, I am sure we will know before the day is over! I mean, they only have about 50 emails to send out, and they are done on a fill in the blanks type format, or so a little birdie told me. So, how long can that possibly take if there are a few people working on it?

The thanks but no thanks emails should be really easy. They probably go down some list on the computer system, check the names and hit send. :confused3

50 people??? WOW! That's a lot more phone interviews than I thought they would do.

Did someone know that number for sure? Is there also a guess on the number of new moms/dads and number in each category? This has been a lot of fun reading all the posts and I will miss it
 
Time to go home. I have to keep myself from grabbing my phone every time it makes a noise on my way home.

:thumbsup2


Good luck to everyone! I'm hoping we all hear something sooooon.

I'm also hoping that my DD still has the headache she went to school with so I don't have to go to the corn maze tonight. I'd love to just stay home and check the computer all night....I mean, relax.

:lmao:

That's just a guesstimate. It could be less. Depends how many they want this year. If it's 15 like last year, you'd think they need a fair amount to choose from, in case they have someone in mind, but maybe after the phone interview they realize that person just isn't ready to be on the panel yet? Maybe something is just missing from what they are looking for. So, I assume they have a "top of the list" group, and then a bunch of people they interview "just in case". :confused3

For some reason I've always assumed they call twice the number they're looking for. So if they want 15 new members, telephone interviews for 30. But as everything else, just a guess!

DS18 took DS11 to the corn maze here last night, and 1 hour after they left we get this call from DS18 "dad, you need to come NOW." :scared1:
Doesn't he realize that you can NEVER start a conversation like that?:crazy2:
Apparently his car got stuck in the muddy parking lot. So we drove there, and had to dig him out, and hubby and another guy pushed the car out of the mud. All the while I am saying "umm, we have AAA, can't I just call and they can tow it out?!" :headache: But Noooooooo men don't need help. Cave men. Now today hubby is whining "my back hurts, my pecs hurt, why do I feel like I was in a wrestling match". grrrrrr :mad::mad::mad:

That could be a better guess! I suppose we will find out soon :thumbsup2
 
I think last year it was 30. Now that they've added a couple new specialties they might have a few more, but I think 50 is high... I was leaning more towards 30/35.

I've heard this too, although I'm not sure where I heard it.

I'm guessing they will interview 20-30 people out of 150-200.
 
I have been sick all day and I am just reading today's pages! Do you think we will hear something this weekend. When I got the submission confirmation, I kind of thought they might not call until early Nov. it was kind of unclear as to whether early Nov was actual phone interview or just finding who advanced through email.
I had a bad day bc somehow in the crazyness of the last week, our AP Fantasyland preview confirmation email got lost on my computer and it isnt even in the trash folder. Nobody at WDW can figure out how to resend it, so we are out of luck. We leave Wed if the Frankenstorm allows us.
Good luck everyone- your posts cheered me today!!
 
OK. I am going to go cook dinner.
Someone yell "hey Amy" if we get the emails! :lmao:
Hopefully I won't burn the food coming back and forth to the laptop!

I agree every year I'm a big bundle of nerves, but this year has been so much fun! Thanks for the laughs ;) I keep hearing "Almost There" over and over in my head just realized I was singing it out loud!

BTW HEY AMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Good luck to everyone!! I think every single person on this board deserves it and would make a fantastic panelist! Pixie dust to all!!! :tinker:

Hopefully we find out this weekend!! :goodvibes

I know they have lives too-- but I'm really hoping for tonight since last year's R3 emails went out late on a Friday evening!
