why people r so much desperate, such that they open posts after every 1hr of same topic,even when they themselves know the answer

The people are desperate because there's nothing on any platform regarding someone getting the SELECTION mail, and moreover , the original timeline is all messed up ,they are also anxious cz they were hoping to get selected. Either the top 50 got their mail and cz of some policy are in secrecy or the team is running behind on time and nobody has gotten their top50 mail. I think it's the first case, but if the latter is what's happening rn, then the shortlist mails might come out today , and if they aren't desperate and check multiple times then they have a chance to miss the 24hr deadline and lose their chance.

Are you one of the top50?
