Tomorrow or Friday I am betting. :chuckle:
-
You got me.
-
Anybody try the backdoor?
-
Do you know something we don't? :chuckle: , i hope your right!!! Good luck to everyone. ya, the backdoor haha
-
I thought everyone knew about the backdoor method, no?
-
:chuckle:
maybe it still is a bit of a secret...whodathunkit after all the drama about it on here.
I did not apply so I can't try it.
-
I just went in the "back door."
"Draw not run yet" is what I see.
-
Thanks Bobcat, I suprised that the backdoor still works after all the people calling the game department over the last few years with all the complications, But the backdoor isn't final results, gotta remember until posted. So if it shows successful don't get too excited :P
-
If mine shows successful all I'll get is a point anyway, as that is all I applied for! So, won't be getting too excited either way.
-
talked to dow yesterday, there were computer errors in hunt choices hd to resubmit mine, said the drawing would be next week sometime
-
bummer, last year the deadline was on a friday the 13th and results were posted the following Thursday which would be tomorrow if they can turn it around as fast this year.
-
Got me. Hate U :bash:
-
I love this time of the year...Bring on the anticipation!!!! :IBCOOL:
-
I am 69 but I still think "WHATEVER" is applicaplicable eh?
-
I heard they delayed it again so more guys can apply for a few weeks.

Maybe they'll push off the spring bear season to July... :chuckle: :chuckle:
-
I'll just wait for WDFW to waste the money sending me a letter saying that I am "UNSUCCESSFUL" even though all I did was buy a point. :bash:
-
People should be flogged for starting these threads...
-
They are not up do not look
-
yes, quit looking.this is a waste of time but i want to get this thread back up top so someone else will be suckered into looking. :bash: :chuckle:
-
Yes, I to looked today. The FAQ on the WDFW web-site that we are supposed to be notified by the last friday in March, so I thought the back door would show results in the next day or so.
-
Whats the back door?
-
If you click on submit application as if you were going to apply for your permits, it will take you to your historical list of results from prior draws. the current year should say "Draw not run yet". It will change to "Selected" or "Not Selected" when they run the draw, but prior to receiving mail notification

-
NOT SUCCESFUL no surprise with only 1 point.
-
I just logged in there and mine still says "Draw not run yet."
Were you looking at this year, or last year's?
-
+1,....Draw Not Run Yet
-
Wait a minute Successful was last year, Unsuccessful was the year before and Not run yet is this year. I'm an idiot, sorry.
-
I don't know what is taking so flippin long. It would be nice to have some time to plan for a hunt if you actually drew.
-

I bet they don't even have the boundaries for the Lincoln area.

I'll bet BTKR's got it. There's probably crap that needs to go in the game reg that they haven't hashed out, and they don't want to publish the results of a 2010 hunt draw until they do.
I told you it's gonna be a July hunt...
-
I bet they don't even have the boundaries for the Lincoln area.
I know I e-mailed the regional Biologist over a month ago asking, and have not heard back
-
Maybe they'll end up saying none of the timber companies agreed to the hunt and cancel it.
-
Has anyone tried calling this weeki and see what there response is this week. I tried the backdoor method and still not drawn yet.
-
Sure would be nice to know before the 15th of April. I need to plan this trip out.
-
I feel like I'm 8 years old again, in the backseat of the station wagon, headed on a long trip and WDFW is driving...
WDFW...are we there yet? WDFW...are we there yet? WDFW...are we there yet? WDFW...are we there yet? WDFW.....
I'll bet that's what they feel like too... :chuckle: :chuckle:
-
Oh the agony! :'(
-
this still sucks.tick tock tick tock. well if we draw at least we will get a weekend or 2 for scouting. :bash: :bash:

The first draw of the year let's do it already!!!
-

I would be fine with points.

This is killing me just tell me selected or selected
-
yeah but then you will want to know where
-
I only put in for one unit, 49 degrees n, and I want it badly :cryriver:
-
I keep checking my email. Its like when the weatherman says its going to snow and you stay up all night long, waiting for the flakes to fly.
-
This is almost making me think that they fixed the back door so we cant see in.
-
all this back door talk scares me :yike:
-
I keep checking my email.
What are you expecting to find in your email?
-
If your checking your email then you are another week or so behind.
-
I thought they'd tell us via email right away. Let me guess, this is not the case? lol.
-
It's been quite a few years now, that when you submit an application for a special permit, there is a box you can check that says something like "notify me of the results by email." I always check that box but have never been notified of any results by email and neither has anybody else that I know of.
-
I wouldn't hold your breathe if your checking by email, the backdoor is the first way to find out, but I agree maybe they fixed the back door. I don't understand why it takes so long or how they could have problems? :dunno:

I always check that box and have never got an email either, what a joke!!!!
-
I got the email last year saying I wasn't drawn for deer or elk . I hope this is my lucky year, for something. Guess I better not hold my breath.

Yea, "desk permits" for August would be more like F&W.

Most of there emails are spam they send you a survey to fill out then they ignore everyone of them and do what they want
-
I can't believe that I'm obsessing about this so much. I'm only gonna have my one point... I just love seeing if I can win the lottery. I do feel for you guys who actually have a chance at drawing this year!
-
After looking at my history, I just noticed, I dont have my cougar point from last year!
-
Im missing a point from spring bear 2008! :bash:
-
almost six pages and still no results..........., should we make bets on what page the results will come out on?
-
I say page 7... :chuckle: :dunno:
-

-
I say page 8 :dunno: but I hope it happens today :bash:
-

bottom of page 6 is my vote.

I expect to see changes at "the backdoor" around 3:00 this afternoon.....
I just used the "search" function to find out when in years past the draw occured, and for the last 2 years in a row, the first guys to get results through the "BD" posted just after 3:00 on a thursday.... :dunno: just guessing....
-
Is that just a test to see if you can get 3000 memebers to be on the WDFW permit page at the same time on the same day? :chuckle:
-
I just checked the backdoor right now and saw the following. Does this mean anything?

i'll have to admit i did go and check just to make sure...

I checked before I posted that it wasn't 3:00 - hoping on that you were serious, but I should know better. :chuckle:
-
So much for my guess of 3:00,....oh well.... :dunno:
-
maybe 3:00 tomorrow
-
THe person who does it is out sick today. He has a Dr. appointment tomorrow so it might be on Monday.
-
I was just reading the wdfg web site under FAQ in special apps and it says the drawing will be announced the end of the last week of march so looks like we have another week to find out.
-
It says that they would be mailed prior to.
I was kind of hoping that they would draw and mail so they would arrive next week.
-
end of the last week of march....,
March 26, 2010......,
Friday..........,
I hope we dont have to wait until next Wednesday.....,
:bash:

What is the value of building up points?
A: Building up points is very much like putting more application cards into the barrel. Those that have more cards in the barrel have an advantage over those that have less. The more points a person has built up for a species over time, the greater are the chances that his/hers will be selected.
AHHHHH I get it now, so you can have max points and still not draw, ohh that sucks >:(

Post the link for the back door please.

goooo! not selected
