Unfortunately it appears to be true. http://www.pafso.com/news_releases.php?newsID=159

Lucky guys who got their DM this week, looks like the rest of us will be waiting for a while until PAFSO and the government can stop bickering and figure this out...

And this, Ladies and Gentlemen, is why we don't count our COPRs until they are in our baskets. I have a feeling that this could delay the posting of decisions made last week.

I don't think we are that lucky. DM means nothing unless we are holding a COPR :( I think we are all in trouble

Maybe this is why they gave so many DM's this week. They knew what was coming!!!!
I just said this to my husband. I actually feel like a pawn in their game. Hand out a bunch of DMs to get everyone excited, then slam the door in our faces :(

Exactly!! We are human's too! They seem to forget that now... It's all games to them. They can't treat people like this! :(
