LOL but instead you had plenty of time to come here yesterday and prod people to guess. But of course you're special and busy and no one else who reads gc is.

Congratulations on getting your first choice and thanks for finally finishing.

I'm sure you didn't mean for this to come off as rude (or at least I hope you didn't), but it did. The way you said it was uncalled for. Pledging and recruitment are very busy, as you well know, and maybe she hadn't received her bid yet at the time she posted asking for predictions. Or maybe she was aiming for suspense, because again, as you well know, suspense makes things more exciting when you find them out.


Congratulations on getting SDT!! I'm sure you will have an AMAZING experience!

I beg to differ. I do not think the remarks were rude at all, but rather, truthful. Please, if you will, go to the start and read the original post by the OP. She started her thread well after she'd finished recruitment. There was no need (other than ego) to drag out the story or ask for guesses.

Dear sweet newbie, it would be prudent to actually read the thread and understand its time line before you begin your lecture. You might find it helpful to use this example of advanced reading comprehension skills from a more experienced GC member:
