azelkhunter69 Report post Posted March 10, 2015 The deadline to update CC info is midnight Thursday so cards should start getting hit Friday and go through next week. Put my son, wife and I all on different CC's so I will know what, where and when as soon as they get hit. I wouldn't use last year as a benchmark. It was a fiasco with all the delays due to the website crashing, CC problems due to data breaches, etc. Let's hope the one day delay in the app. deadline is the only problem there is this time. Good luck boys and girls. Christmas morning is almost here!! LOL 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Expect delays again, and I would bet dollars to donuts cards don't get hit till next week. Nonetheless I will be checking my CC every 10 minutes starting Friday. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bonecollector777 Report post Posted March 10, 2015 As recently as this past week I have heard of people getting phone calls trying to figure out the messed up charges and which apps made it through the system and which ones got charged 5 times. Got a feeling it's gonna be a while before it's all figured out and the draw is started and credit cards hit. I'm guessing they will be pushing it to make it by the deadline. But hey wanna know what's great? Deadlines can be pushed back as far as azgfd wants. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jgraffaz Report post Posted March 10, 2015 Thru the years I have learned the only way to deal with the draw is to not care....but that is impossible so its going to be along weight no matter what. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alpinebullwinkle Report post Posted March 10, 2015 I helped cook steaks for the Commissioners and AGFD officials last weekend and had a chance to discuss this topic. They all looked at me funny when I made the statement that it was time this week to possibly start hitting the credit cards? Then one of them admitted that, as usual, they are encountering problems once again with the draw. No telling on the timing going forward. They did admit they have hired internal IT resources to create their own draw software, hopefully enhance the current system, and handle internally for future years. They are hoping this will be an improvement rather than depending on outsourced resources that change from year to year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So "Alpy".... was this at one of the homes for the "boys" on the comssion.... is that how you're making sure your app is on top of the pile. "mind if I cook you some juicy steaks to help my name get picked". ha ha Just kidding. It doesn't matter when they START drawing apps.... it only matters when they draw mine. :-) I could be the last name from the hat for all I care, as long as I still get to go. not holding my breath about any delays though.
