(...) Yeah I'm kinda peeved that LEGO hasn't even sent me a bummer email. I received nothing and I have the confirmation that I applied so its not like htat don't have my email. What's up with that? I can accept I didn't make the cut but c'mon...I (...) (19 years ago, 8-Mar-06, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) You're certainly not alone, Alexander, but I don't think it's a purposeful thing. It appears that perhaps some (or all?) yahoo e-mail accounts and some (or all?) gmail accounts are not able to receive the e-mails from Lego for some reason. (...) (19 years ago, 8-Mar-06, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Mike, you pretty much hit the nail on the head with this post, thanks. I do believe its worth the added effort to email all those who applied. Besides, not all the applications had gmail or yahoo accounts. So far, I'm slightly peeved at this (...) (19 years ago, 8-Mar-06, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) I have not received a "bummer email", and my address is tied to my own domain that I run the email server for. I don't have any email blocking active. I don't think there is any reason for me to be missing the email, other than LEGO not (...) (19 years ago, 8-Mar-06, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Oooooooh, I know what's going on here...you see what's *really* happen is that we are all part of the original 100, they just haven't gotten around to sending us an email yet (LEGO are you out there?). Wishful thinking, -aps (19 years ago, 8-Mar-06, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Excellent analysis. I'll go with your theory. It's either that or they're waiting to send fake acceptance emails on April 1st as a cruel joke. -Tim (19 years ago, 8-Mar-06, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) It is true that email is not a "foolproof" way of communicating, but it is not as fallible as you portray. And 9000 is far from "high volume" email. At least if you're talking about a company communicating with its customers. I work for a (...) (19 years ago, 8-Mar-06, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Of course it's also possible that LEGO still have got yay or nay from the first 100 respondants, and so sending out bummer emails may be premature. ROSCO (19 years ago, 8-Mar-06, to lugnet.robotics)
