  1. well I do hope you day checkers do do something to get some sleep...
  2. I created a quick php countdown function that displays on the frontpage -->> www.navyadvancement.com , I can't display it in the forum cuz' it's php code.
  3. Not really, this has been the most intense wait yet. So far our count is over half a million views for this thread. This is attributed to the new server which is way more stable. This is also attributed to you all who have made this forum a success. Some may think "well the forum crash didn't make it look that stable." The bottom line though is that the server could not handle the visit load - it ran out of memory before the bandwidth even became an issue – a first here. Everything has shifted left. That is one reason I have had to turn off registration; not enough hours in the day to take care of other stuff and to deal with some of the more demented Sailors in our Navy who troll here. Basically it it is still waiting for the results but to Triad. Also the new server is like the Zumwalt – you still need someone to check the gauges and press the buttons. So less band aids yes, less hectic – not even.
  4. and i only had like 30 seconds for my joke and had to leave

  6. Not me judging by the message New Chiefs Names to be Release Next Week Chief of Naval Personnel Public Affairs Office WASHINGTON - The names of active duty Sailors selected to advance to Chief Petty Officer by the Fiscal Year 2015 E-7 Selection Board are scheduled to be posted to commands' BUPERS Online (BOL) accounts Tuesday, Aug. 5, at 9 a.m. EDT, with public release via NAVADMIN 24 hours later on Wednesday, Aug. 6. Approximately 3,900 quotas were announced in June, with overall advancement opportunity of 24.09 percent for this cycle. This was a 2.59 percentage point drop from last cycle though still above 10-year average of 22.7%. The selection board is not required to fill all quotas; only the best and most fully qualified candidates will be selected for advancement. Because the Navy advances to vacancies, opportunities vary by rating. Advancement planners work to smooth overall opportunity across cycles. Thanks, <name removed>
  7. Ok folks, since things will start moving fast Tues, here are some things to keep in the back of your head... There is a selectee spousal forum where you can meet others, ask questions or get help. KnockOutTrish has always been a tremendous asset in helping others over there. Hampton Roads has a spouse of selectee event scheduled and it is posted in the selectee spousal area. If anyone is aware of any other events please let me know or post in that area. There is a private selectee / Chief forum. To get access contact Dogg via PM. You must be a Chief or selectee. Selectee car washes or other events can be posted in the News and Scuttlebutt area. Further details are in the “Forum News and Updates”. It could give your event more exposure so take advantage of that. I wish all candidate good luck on Tuesday.
  8. Yeah lol, someone gave instructions to reply to them in case of such ands such. I want to learn how to send out demanding emails too, they look important. He's still blacklisted though...
  9. Actually, I don't need to let you know about your follow up requests. I have already posted that the answer is in the "Forum News & Updates". I have also repeatedly requested that people check that area before emailing me. Now you have instructions for me to follow so... Here's the plan to make things easier (on myself): 1) Take that silver spoon out of your mouth 2) Continue emailing me even though you are now blacklisted at the server level. I did a risk assessment - this simple plan should work We now return to our regularly scheduled programming
  10. As best I know BOL is 24 hrs later to allow CO,XO,CMC those 24hrs to perform their functions.
  11. posted in the selectees spousal support forum info on a conference in Hampton Roads
  12. Speculation of release to triad has taken its place, yeah you might have missed it. Even though there was some credible info (our forum got it first) that it would be next week by the 7th (turned out the 5th ), there were rumors still flying afterword about the 30th and 31st of Jul. Rumors were being reported that "Bigfoot had the results" all the way to "Aliens from outer space were doing the callout" It was like the republicans and democrats with one party in total denial that it could ever happen next week. Reasons being that it was a crime against humanity or that it could reduce life expectancy - stuff along those lines. Better heads prevailed from the opposite party that stated it would be next week and that "it is what it is" or words to that affect of the current calamity. At about the same time this week Tricare posted about expanded mental health care options which is posted in the medical benefits forum and of which Tricare, nor the Navy, nor the Pentagon would ever claim is related to a butt load of Sailors waiting for the Navy to release the results. (Since you said you may have missed it, please note that I kept the above as factual as possible.)
