The last submission window took place last October and attracted 1,190 submissions in 24 hours. Only about 130 blogs were accepted from those 1,190 applicants.

		<description>[...] Thats right, the true public face of 9rules can not be put on a handful of people, but on the community. As far as I know, that was the intention with 9rules - it was launched in 2003 by a few people with a vision/an idea, and it has now escalated to be a community with more than 200 members, and with more than 1190 people interested in becoming members (october 2006).

		<description>Let&#039;s make an educated guess.

50 blogs a day. (assuming the whole 9rules crew is involved and &#039;distributed computer&#039; is done.)

1100 submissions.

3 weeks?

mid Nov&#039;s my educated guess.

Unless Scrivs is gonna run another competition on when the ~160 acceptances might be announced.

		<description>You can submit any round you want. We haven&#039;t nailed down a date since its hard to determine how long it takes to go through 1100+ sites.</description>

		<description>We&#039;ve talked in the past about revamping our submission process, making it more democratic, but nothing is set in stone.  Right now we&#039;re concentrating on this current Round 5 and if/when a Round 6 will occur is still up in the air.</description>
