If they had wanted to set a precedent they would have made that decision earlier and tell the NPCs accordingly: it’s not in their best interest to be in bad terms with the entities that guarantee the smith running of the fellowships at the national level.

well, this doesn't really apply to the UK NCPs at the moment no-deal Brexit is round the corner, so the EC will have nothing to do with them...
Re: 2018 Marie Curie Individual Fellowship (H2020-MSCA-IF-2018)
This makes sense. I really hope the results will come out today. To quote someone here I have never been so eager to get a rejection in my life
Do you think they could really start at 17 CET. This would be great but I am afraid it will go towards 00:00 again. How many more sleepless nights?? Sleep deprivation is slowly staring to take over

Best.

Plus that the UK NCP seems to be saying slightly different things to different people. expert_pastMC who did you call? NCP or comission?

... And after almost a week of going to sleep in your company... I ultimately decided to post something!
I am like an addict: anytime I tell myself 'this is the last time I check...' and after 1h I am back again refreshing the forum for news Waiting is nerve-wracking but in Italy we always say 'no news is good news'. After many many many rejections you become philosophical and start just to be positive and learn from your mistakes.
I am at my second attempt with MSCA. Since I was awarded my PhD last year I have had a pretty bad moon on academic applications and I am at present working in the private sector, because as everyone here I need to pay bills. But I never stop writing and keep updates.
Question: I got on the portal for the first time since the submission, last week. My status is 'final'. I have read a lot of different posts about statuses ... 'Final' is a bad thing???
'It essential to create many tomorrows which are worthy of such a beautiful beginning' wrote a philosopher I love. So my wish to all of us is that all those hours we spent thinking about something brilliant to write ... Were only the beginning of our beautiful tomorrow !
And hopefully ... Literally tomorrow !

welcome! no, final is not a bad thing. you are probably looking at the *mainstream* website. we all have final there. are you sure you want at this point to look at all the links that have circulated to see your 'phase'?

how strange, I have become addicted to this forum and to refreshing all the links circulating here and this is not even for myself (I am the supervisor)!!! but I do remember all the stress and sleepless nights I had 2-3 years ago while waiting for the results for myself and I can totally feel it again now. Good luck all! I wish you all the best!

Re: 2018 Marie Curie Individual Fellowship (H2020-MSCA-IF-2018)
Today has been a terrible day at work...so I assume that we'll get results today simply with how my bad luck always comes at once. I assume all the bad things that are going to happen to me in the next month will happen today/tomorrow. Of course this is unscientific, but...I guess good news for you guys.
Re: 2018 Marie Curie Individual Fellowship (H2020-MSCA-IF-2018)
I have to prepare so many lectures from scratch and, instead, checking this forum every 5 minutes... This is mental.

I am effectively purposefully avoiding any links... But I admit... Temptation is evil... And evil is attractive....
