the other community spreadsheet is at 9/20 12:17am for 3897

That may be an accurate report, but I don't rely on the spreadsheets for my summary. Too often the information on the spreadsheets has been found to be erroneous (it is almost daily). The worst thing I can do with the summary is get out in front of the actual queue and create fear in folks that they have been skipped.

OK, a bunch of Questions. Any help would be appreciated. 
 
Is there priority for Elite members in the Queue? I've been buying cards from evga since the 8800 gts. It would be nice if loyal customers were rewarded. 
 
I just put myself on the notify queue today. I notice people who entered in September are getting notifications now. So, I'm looking at a 5 month wait?! 
 
It annoys me that people are limited to 1 of each type of card. That means that a scalper can buy a bunch of cards. For the 30xx it should be one card per customer on notify. Do I have my facts right? Can you buy 10 different 30xx cards? 
 
I see the Kingpin is an Elite exclusive. Is it easier to get if you're an Elite member? Does that massive fan go on the top of my case?

Hello,

I've been in the Que since October 5th at approximately 10AM. Anyone else from around that date or after already received their email?

Searched all folders manually for

Please help.

Maybe that's true from your point of view, however I disagree, miners are a significant part of the problem for people like me. I've been trying for just one card, JUST ONE, for over 5 months. When report after report after report shows miners hoarding hundreds if not thousands of cards at a time, and those cards will not be nearly as valuable after the miners are done with them reducing their lifespan but years. 

Why only pick on the miners? Graphic artists, animators, and video editors also use the card for non-gaming purposes. My company (and I will not share where for obvious reasons) will allow a purchase of a card be expensed for some employees - so they can get it for free really.
 
Gamers are not the only one entitled to video cards.

 - no

- Maybe? there are to many factors to say for sure, but you do have a VERY long wait if you just signed up today

- it's one SKU per person/notify, since there are about a dozen skus across all 30xx cards, then yes, but hey still have to wait in line like everyone else.
 
I see the Kingpin is an Elite exclusive. Is it easier to get if you're an Elite member? Does that massive fan go on the top of my case? 
 
- The kingpin card still has a queue, although I haven't been following it.  It has a 360mm rad that will need to get mounted as it's a hybrid card.

There is such a thing as too cautious... and I kind of resent claims that the spreadsheet information is "erroneous"; I manually update it multiple times a day, and clean up any errors, if there are any. I also validate the information with users who report back, so you can be sure that at most points in the day, it is completely correct. As it stands, 3897 is now indeed at 9/20, I personally communicated with the user who reported this. It is no less accurate than the summary sheet (which is also much appreciated, by the way), and simply offers a more granular look at the queue which is nicely complemented by enewt's summary.

 
Absolutely, one can be too cautious -- and, I suppose in this context, to that charge I will plead no lo contendere.
 
For clarity, what I said was "Too often the information on the spreadsheets has been found to be erroneous (it is almost daily)." It is not always erroneous. If we are talking about the same spreadsheets (I know there are a few out there), then I can say in the last week or two the team handling them has gotten better about cleaning them up. But, most recently (yesterday), there were multiple sheets that had bad reports (I have not checked today), and too often I have found in the past that bad data on Thursday night or Friday night might get corrected by the following Monday or Tuesday (allowing for multiple days of weekend confusion about whether folks were skipped)...sometimes it stretches longer (I've seen bad reports dated ten days prior to the then-current day I viewed the sheets). Not everybody has to be as anal about this stuff as I do -- but I'm just one dude and I spend time each weeknight trying to make sure I am not misleading folks with what I make public...whereas some of those spreadsheets have whole teams of folks working on them.   
 
I do not mean to offend or demean the efforts of you or the team handling the spreadsheets (some folks get value from them). And I will try to temper my frustration about them going forward. However, the erroneous reports on the sheets result in regular inquiries to these forums, to me (and others) via PMs and to JacobF via Twitter. Whatever you and your team can do to reduce the number of erroneous reports (or at least the amount of time they remain "live" on the sheets), that would be greatly appreciated by me (and I assume others). Thank you for the efforts in creating and maintaining the sheets -- some members of the community derive value from viewing the incomplete data set of registrants; I am just not one of them (with the exception of the Elite-limited KPE sheet which I do maintain but solely edit (i.e., third parties cannot edit the data)).

Thanks for the update! May I ask on what day the que started so that I can track the days covered so far. Also I think the cards were released on the 28th of September. Does that mean the wait list started before the release date.

Seriously thanks for the update even of 16 days is 6 months at least I know I have a place not lost in the ether.

Hello,

It's a 3080 FTW. I think this is the number you seek?

P/N: 10G-P5-3897-KR

Is there a way to check position or any information on the wait itself?

FTW3 personified.   That sku is the 3080 FTW3 Ultra.  That queue is currently approximately around midnight between 9/19 and 9/20.  You have some time to wait, unfortunately. Best of luck!

Hi, is there any average time for 3881 and 3751? Obviously US.
