No expectations no disapointment approach eh?

I meant to apply, but forgot.

This may have been mentioned before, but what is the appeal of being a shirt?

Same appeal as being a 2002 mod ...

You can ban people?!

I talked to some people at the Volunteers Ball on Friday and I think I made some progress on finding out some stuff. Now I didn't hear this first hand (I heard it from Rovhelle, who heard it from Ronnie, who heard it from Phil, who heard it from Yaui, who is the 2004 yellow shirts coordinator), but it seems that they have known who made it and who didn't for quite a while now. But as some people who did yellow shirts this year who tried out again didn't make it for next year they didn't want them finding out before the volunteers ball.

That was on Friday so all of you who applied should find out on Monday when you check your letter boxes!

lol, its cool

well, it doesnt matter whether ur first or fifth year, the selection process is the same - if ur good enuff ur in i guess

I got rejected, and so did a friend of mine who also did yellow shirts earlier this year. So don't feel bad if you didn't make it through, it was a tough process to make it through.

Atleast you guys don't know what you're missing out on...I do!
