Sounds like you probably didn't submit them. Did you go into each individual's category you purchased and select the specific hunts you wanted to apply for?

yes, I am 100% certain I submitted them.

HeronBlu, may I offer some advice?  Take a deep breath, and wait a few days.  Oftentimes, just prior to the special tag result announcements we notice some really strange things happen on the website.  It is possible that just this has happened, and all will be well with your points and application.

Give it a few days, then go berserk.  H'm K?

Yeah, you are probably right. I'm just frustrated. Ill call them tomorrow and post the update. I was just wondering if anyone else had experienced this too?

Just tell them you called a high level dept employee and they said it was ok for them to add your applications to the draw! :chuckle:

Looks like your the first to know your results on HW. Can you start the loser lounge thread and save us some seats?  :sry:
I knew my draw results the day I purchased permits, got everything I put in for too. 1 antlered moose point and 1 ram sheep point.
Now then, get your equipment—your quiver and bow—and go out to the open country to hunt some wild game for me.  Gen. 27:3

OK I jumped the gun so to speak blaming Wdfw. I called them this morning and fixed the glitch. I guess they were having server problems when I was looking at it. Everything I submitted for is correct and DNRY. Phew!!!

Thank goodness.

I think we had a similar post the day after the draw, guy came on complaining about the WDFW not allowing him to modify his application before the drawing and he was all bent out of shape about it.  Started a thread after business hours complaining.  Called them the next day and got it worked out as well.

Public service announcement, give them a chance to fix it before starting a thread blaming them.  :tup:

Again glad you are waiting for results like the rest of us.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.
