A busy life got in the way and I missed the draw somehow. The plan was to go otc but get a PP for next year. Am I truly SOL now with getting a point for next season?
So how many extra applications were sent in after the 4/6 deadline? I thought a deadline was a deadline. Now it’s just a guideline- cash cow.. My son and I applied early hoping we would be lucky and draw a unit with borderline odds. Now I would guess that our chances are about nothing with all the extra names in the hat. Kinda horse shit that they could just decide to rake in some extra cash like they did. Guess they needed a little extra scratch for the wolf program.
Can I call in for a refund of my qualifying license and other fees? I think I know the answer. Bunch of Jack hats.
Enough that they broke a new record for number of big game applications. 685k apps. Guess it wasn't crowded enough out there. I agree with you 100%

Fair would be to close the application period on the date and time published in the proclamation.The extension occurred because the system crashed.
It would not have been fair to the thousands of procrastinators if CPW said tough luck..because it was their faulty server that continually crashes.
There would have been approximately the same amount of applicants crash/extension or no crash.
You don’t get more of a chance if you apply early, and it’s highly doubtful your chances of drawing were impacted in any way by the extension.
I don’t want more people hunting in Colorado, but fair is fair.
If you don’t like the system, then stay home.
Colorado doesn’t need your money, and you won’t be missed.

Now the majority of whiner's will wait until the very end next year and crash the system again, in effect causing the cycle to repeat itself.
No lesson is learned when poor behavior is rewarded.

Well said, they would have bitched if they were trying to apply and couldn’t get through because it crashed. And now they bitch that they allowed them to apply. We would all be better off if they found else where to hunt. If you don’t like it, your not by any means being forced to hunt here.The extension occurred because the system crashed.
