Wait List
This year the wait list will open at 12:01am, Eastern Daylight Time, on May 26th. Those who wish to stay up to enter themselves on the list that night, thus insuring a low number and high slot probability, will not have the option of paying the wait list fee at that time. The entry will be recorded in the order in which it was posted to the system, an acknowledgement email will be sent, and a notice will be added to the member’s online classification record.
That person’s place on the wait list will be held until June 2nd. It will be their responsibility to return to the web page sometime between May 27th and June 1st using either the link included in the email or shown as part of the classification record to pay the $25 wait list fee.
Failure to pay the fee within the generous time period reserved for that purpose will result in that member’s name being removed from the wait list. Everyone who signed up later who paid their fees will move up on the list at least one place.
Please note that this procedure applies only to those who enter their information on the wait list during the first few hours it is open. All others will be given a link that will take them to the wait list fee payment area immediately after entering their information on the list. The effect of this procedure will be to spread the server activity over a longer time period, thereby avoiding the sudden surge in processing demand that created problems in 2007.
Returning to the web page and paying the fee is the member’s responsibility. There will be no exceptions. If for any reason the fee is not paid during the specified period the record will be removed from the wait list. There can be no appeal.
The purpose of providing this information here is to give a "heads up" so that the change won't come as a surprise in the early hours of May 26th. There will be step-by-step instructions leading members through the process when they enter their information on the Nationals wait list page.
Good luck and we hope to see you in Tulsa!
