Update 1:32 PM: As prospective first-years have long, overwrought conversations about the Core at Low Steps, a spectacle proceeds, ignorant to them, in John Jay Lounge, one that will shake the very bedrock of the school — Day Three of suite selection. Plus the board hasn’t been updated in, like, half an hour. Here’s what’s left for the underclassmen:
Old updates after the jump.

@WOW HERE TOO Bwog deleted a comment recommending the Commentariat on the CCSC post, and a comment regarding the Spec’s The Shaft blog (#8) over here.
Bwog is probably going to delete this comment too, so if you see it, please spread the word with your own comment.
WTF?
If you don’t want people plugging other blogs, have better coverage! Yesterday’s housing lottery coverage was just incomplete.
btw: I am not affiliated with Commentariat, Bwog, or Spec
@I think I think it’s ridiculous too. Bwoggers claim that they are just enforcing the policy to not advertise on the site, but a link to spec or a spec blog is much more likely to be deleted than something from youtube or nytimes or gawker, and usually in circumstances in which bwog hasn’t given the same sort of coverage as spec has. It makes sense that bwog and spec would have different coverage of things. Bwog has around 20 staffers and Spec has probably 10x that. I think bwog shouldn’t shy away from it’s lesser manpower- both sites are useful for different things and this whole “direct competition” thing between bwog and spec is just plain immature. And while the editor of commentariat often posts links advertising his site, in some cases it is interesting to take a look at things like the shaft, which has several people working on it. Maybe a head-nod from bwog every once in a while wouldn’t be such a bad thing?
@yes especially given the fact that Bwog posts links to Spec daily anyway (through QuickSpec). prioritize dissemination of vital information to Columbia students over asinine inter-publication rivalry! no Columbia publication is important enough to warrant such behavior from its board/editors. (plus there’s no money involved, fools. deleting such comments and getting called out just makes Bwog look petty)
@failed suite does anyone know what happens if you go in for a suite and you don’t get it. I am a junior going in for a suite with another junior, senior, and a couple of sophomores. once we drop down to general selection, will i have the same lottery time as the other junior, since we have the same point value and lottery number? will we be able to sign up for a double together if that’s the case?
@depends did you decide to disband in the case of dropping to general?
@???? why aren’t broadway/schapiro doubles up?
@because nobody’s taken any yet
@pregunta wheres the update
@BWOG BWOG – where me numbers of suites left!!!
@mmm fucked
@non yo bzns uh, you can answer both of those questions yourself.
1) look at the fricken schedule of appointment times.
2) see which suites are taken and add up the spots.
@question 1. How far are they into the Juniors? Like what was the latest number to pick their suite?
2. How many people are dropping into general selection?
@hey bwog theres music and food in lerner. well, the food’s mostly gone. know just four old people playing lounge music. you gotta report on that yo!
@Anonymous The housing gods smiled down upon me, I got my suite todayyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!
