Mystery of the Missing PINs

I have solved the mystery of the missing PINS. And by solved, I mean emailed the elections peeps and asked them what was up. Super detective? I think SO!

It turns out that they are sending the emails out in shifts; one assumes this is to prevent the crash of the e-voting universe.

The advice I was given: if you do not have your PIN by noonish, contact the helpdesk through the evote link on the iwillvote.ca website.

I hope that clears things up for some of you!

UPDATE: Wassim posted this in the comments of another post, but I want to make sure it is obvious:

"As you know, we decided to send two disctinct emails: French and English. We sent out the French emails first and we are now about to send the English ones. They were all sent at the same time, but there seems to be a traffic jam. The University, Everyonecounts and the Elections Bureau is on it."
