Since last year’s drawing, lots of state employees are gone because of the vaxx mandate.  I wonder if WDFW was able to hire or if they’re on a freeze? Could be why it’s taking so long.

Considering they have the money to repair the yakima home base after the break in as well as remodel the bathrooms I don’t think money is the issue.

It was supposed to happen on the 12th but there was a bug in the system that prevented the drawing from happening. This was from an inside source. I’m sure we’ll get the results on Monday.

it is absolutely astounding this day in age of technology that this should take a mere few hours from the time you can no longer submit apps.

Totally get that, you'd think you could trust the technology but I believe they have to, for lack of better terms, "fact check" the apps to double check the computer system.  It sounds like a bug this time, I'm just surprised, this New system has been in place now for a few years, shouldn't be any bugs anymore.
“In common with”..... not so much!!

I found out by an insider I wasn't drawn and had them call it a "bug in the system" so they could re-draw today and pull my name. :chuckle:

It takes a long time to print every application and put them in a hat guys. Give them a break. A lot can go wrong.

Where do they get a hat that big.

Must be one of those giant foam cowboy hats.
