Q1 results typically come out in April.
Aaaah yes, the cruelest month!
Just did a real rough outline for my Q3. I might be able to finish a draft before Q2 is over. Without something to work on, I'd fixate on waiting for results and be a wreck. If I'm speeding along on the next thing, I don't have enough time to linger looking in the rear view mirror.

I'm betting tonight is the night. Results incoming--but don't hold me to it. 
figured we needed more suspense, why not?

I'm guessing it's an error.

I meant that it's coming soon to 4th & Starlight, but I can see how that could be interpreted either way!
I tweaked my sig to make it more clear.
But we should all write "Finalist coming soon", right?

I believe it's an anthology.
Indeed, it's the 4th!
My finalist 1 link goes to the first in the set. 1, 2, and 3 are out.
Liz (Disgruntled Peony) is editing 4th. I'm pretty sure there will be a Kickstarter. 3rd had one and it was funded, so that's good.
I should have done one with mine... (2nd).

Congratulations on getting your first entry in! Whatever results you get, you should definitely be proud you made that first step. (I got an R my first time out, but a SF on my second quarter--and some people win their first or second quarter in, so you never know.)
Fingers crossed for April! (No guarantees, but that is when results tend to come out in the spring.)

Alright everyone. I've got that feeling that results are on their way.
But to be fair, I've had that feeling for 3 weeks. ?
Best of luck to all of you. ?

Results apparently used to come out more frequently on Thursdays. I don't think this is particularly true any longer though. They can come out any day, any time.

Results only come out on Thursday.
And every day is Thursday.
There are different sources for this seeming paradox. One suggested root is that it makes the rest of the week less stressful if you only worry about the results on Thursday. Whether this particular theory is indeed correct is subject to much debate; however, the end matter is that not only are we driven crazy waiting for the results, we look crazy as well, being under the impression that a week is composed of only one day.

He's used recycled tips as peeps before. I think it's new, but I'd argue it's a peep regardless.

I agree with the arguing. 
The question is whether the peep means one day or one week.
