   Second, a lot of folks have commented here and in other forums that they
never heard *anything* back from LEGO as to if they had gotten in or not. I've
been asked to announce that LEGO did, in fact, send out emails to *everyone*
(all 9000+) who applied. It appears some of those spam filters are a little too
good. It was NOT the intention to leave a bunch of people hanging with no
contact!

Well I can confirm that I received no reply to my gmail.com address, and as
gmail keeps all my spam filtered mail, can confirm that it wasn't filtered
either. And as I *did* receive a "sorry try again next time" mail for my
ambassador application, my only conclusion is that no email was sent to my
address. That may mean I didn't enter it correctly when I applied, but as I
generally copy & paste from my email client when I enter my email address, I'm
fairly sure that isn't the case.

So I'm a little perplexed - I'd be very disappointed if I was accepted, but
passed over because I didn't reply to an email I never received.

I personally know 9 people, with 7 different mail providers (this includes
myself) who applied, received the initial confirmation, but never got a happy or
sad confirmation email.

I don't get very much spam so I employ the 'ol manual filtering.  No auto-spam
filtering stole the message from me.

And that's all the more I'll say about the subject.  It's clear I wasn't
included in the MDP so I'll won't beat this dead horse anymore.
