It's kind of a unique notification procedure. If I remember correctly from last year, at about the same time (very end of August / very beginning of September), (1) postal letters are mailed to those whose scripts did not advance at all; (2) postal letters are mailed to those whose scripts advanced to the Second Round (Top 10%), but failed to go any further; and (3) phone calls are made to those whose scripts advanced to the Semifinals and are still alive in the competition.
Calls come after letters, and I believe the Semifinalists will be posted on their site late tonight. I live in Austin so I probably get the letter a little quicker than some will. Good luck!
I wish they just posted it online like Page and then for the finals make the calls. There are just so many entrants waiting for a handful of spots and the wait is agonizing.
Got a rejection letter yesterday. So un-fun to come home to.
So, it has begun ...
The system does seem to be especially designed to be nerve-wracking. I'd be surprised if they had Semifinalists posted online by the end of the day; I think it took them significantly longer than that last year.
