<p>Well obviously everyone is still trying, unless we permenantly damaged the server. (very unlikely)</p>
<p>I’m going to ****ING nuke the place if they dont extend it</p>
<p>Hmm… if only these schools used “my method” of doing online apps… SIGH!</p>
<p>The front page has a new picture making it officially past due.</p>
<p>1337hax0r: Yes, the smartest people tend to be the laziest. The only reason we’re smart is because we know the smarter we are the less studying we have to do.</p>
<p>Mruncleramos: You can’t block IPs by time zone. Matching an IP to a location is pretty inacurate, and the deadline states EST.</p>
<p>All those who missed: Judging from the general state of things, I’m thinking MIT will extend a day or two. They’ll be ticked off at all of us, but I think they’ll extend. Seriously the MIT adcoms have got to be the nicest most understanding people on the planet.</p>
<p>Not that I’d mind the applicant pool suddenly shrinking by a few thousand.</p>
<p>Heh, I am not going to scold you for waiting this long. :P. I do, however, advocate starting REALLY early on college apps, and I hope you all tell your friends next year not to wait!</p>
<p>In the meanwhile, I would recommend still trying to submit… heck, you’ve probably paid the $65, at least do whatever you can. Let’s see what the adcom says tomorrow!</p>
<p>-Timur</p>
<p>I just got in!</p>
<p>I already applied EA though, so it’s not too big a deal for me. :P</p>
<p>Good luck all!</p>
<p>xXPhoenixFireXx - The front page has a new picture making it officially past due.</p>
<p>I’m guessing that it was set up to change at midnight and that no person made the switch…</p>

Does this mean we can’t storm the buildings?</p>
<p>Like I said… if MIT is really your number one choice… use Xiggi’s method and mail it in tomorrow (only if you are in the west coast though).</p>
<p>EDIT: I wonder why ppl Ed are refreshing the page -.-</p>
<p>Eh, I had it loaded, then now it’s too busy again.</p>
<p>I’m afraid to hear the number of total RD applicants… If the MIT’s servers become too busy at the last minute because too many people are trying to apply…</p>
<p>Theonekid -> I just checked once or twice to see what all the hubbub was about. I’m staying off the servers now. :)</p>
<p>Looking on the brighter side:
It’s MIT, chances are any demarcation of the deadline was automated.</p>
<p>Looking on the darker side:
Nance specifically said not to wait until Jan 1, because if the site dies, you’re “screwed.”</p>
<p>:/. It could really go either way with this. Let’s hope Mrs. Marilee Jones is in a good mood.</p>
<p>ay yaaaaaaaaaaaaa</p>
<p>I wonder if there is a bias towards ppl who submit late even if the deadline is extended =-P</p>
<p>Mruncleramos- Feel free to storm away. I’m think MIT would look favorably upon anyone who could organize a mass raid on their campus admissions office.</p>
<p>I guess I wouldn’t blame them if there was.</p>
<p>You are right. A mass raid would be uncool. A ninja strike at night would be right.</p>
<p>I wonder how this was handled for the ED kids…</p>
<p>It was extended for EA is how</p>
<p>No I mean… “This kid turned in his app late…” – “This kid didnt”… hmmm</p>
