Also I think they get some kind of correspondence reminding them about it so I'd assume you guys just don't have a list. A lot of places don't have a list.

Does anyone have the number of eligible applicants for ZDV or ZLC?
ZDV's list had 29 names on it and was a kick right in the dick. 10 or so Center CPC applicants, 15 or so total people from 9+s. Didn't see ZLC.
Handful of ERIs on PCT's list, if one of them is you, you probably got a chance at it. They're picking 19th with 12 selections so even if they don't rank you high there's bound to be some people towards the top of their rankings that get crossed off by the first 18 facilities.

Did anyone's NATCT rep get a SWB update this week? They are usually sent out on Wed but none this week
Has anything changed internally to moreso "mandate" a facility take their number of possible gains? For instance last err pull, pct had 12-15 possible gains but only 1 selection. I doubt there was only one eligible person last pull who out in for pct... Just curious of anyone knows of things like projected academy slots (reference zdc right now), current training backup, etc has anything to do with it...
It seems like in the past if you were drafting outside of the top 20-25 there was just basically nobody left eligible. So PCT only got 1 last time cuz they were drafting in the 40s and their entire list was eliminated before they got to pick. The amount of eligible losses about doubled this round so I'd assume it would expand to outside the top 20-25 this time. I'd expect PCT to get many more this time. There were a few facilities they listed last time that purposely didn't use all their slots due to training backlog.

You can view it on the KSN, it's right under the PPT. It was updated on 8/30
Last panel was the first time a facility was not mandated to select their entire list. They publicly stated 4 facilities (LAX, MIA, I90, and ORD) that the NCEPT chose not to select everyone. They said it was in order to not create a training backlog. The only other that we're aware of was ZOB because of what happened with one of our members here. As far as PCT goes, 1 is probably legitimate. They probably had 15-20+ when the NCEPT started, but there were a number of highly desirable facilities above them so by the time it reached PCT last panel, only 1 was left eligible.
On the opposite side, my current facility has been eligible 3 times, the 8th ranked facility is the lowest we've stayed eligible.
That ZOB situation is still baffling to me.

Agreed.
Plus that poor bastard will be 56 before he ever has a shot at ZOB again - 34 eligible losses what an absolute freaking joke those previous estimated staffing numbers were.

It's updated as of 8/30 on the KSN I just couldn't get on there and look. @breakaway2000 pulled through with looking it up
ZBW shows able to pick up 2, if we lose people from ZBW to a higher priority facility before they get to us (say 2 go to A80), will we be able to actually take 4?
or if we lose people after they do our pickups, will they go back and fill more than 2 slots? we had 10 people on our ranking list to come to ZBW, just wondering how good a chance #3 or 4 has of getting paperwork

You guys are locked in at 2 picks. But you're drafting 30th so I wouldn't be surprised if you ended up with either #7 and #9 or literally none at all. All depends on whose on your list and what facilities they're at. If its other center CPCs from some of theses centers that can release a million people then you'll definitely get 2.

Unfortunately not, figures are locked prior to the panel regardless of how many are selected throughout.
With that being said. The NCEPT panel can largely do what they want and we have seen facilities in the past pick up more then their slotted number.

Think this would apply to a Top 15 Level 12 that is currently slated to pick up zero but needs several to get to target? Or do you think since they are at zero they'll be left out altogether?

If they are able to select zero, they won't be considered at all during the panel I don't believe. Those facilities did not even get errs to rank. They are saying facilities that can already gain people just snag up one or two extra putting them above nat avg
Since we (MDT) got our SWB up to date, but not on any referral list is there any chance we can be added after they were distributed. I know this is the last day but I feel like I remember a panel or two ago that this happened to another facility. I couldn't find it after a quick search in the previous forums.
