If you didn't get an email for elk, seems like it means you didn't draw. My group didn't draw and never got an email. We did draw for deer, and we all got emails.

I think the emails were slow to get out and delivered to me hours apart.

Just an FYI, I got drawn for both and the deer email went out over an hour before the elk one did.  I got both email eventually.

I didn't receive the email for elk, logged in and am successful. I did receive an email about being successful on deer.

They will definitely see a revenue spike from purchased licenses this year. Applications were free this year. I could see them charging for applications next year though.
