Well, for a start - UK [except Northern Ireland] is not eligible for DV, but as you may see in my nick, I apply based on my country of birth [Serbia] - even though I am dual national.
I suppose, I am not that much emotionally invested in this [as it is just a lottery], so then, when I don't get selected, I don's stress too much about it
Having moved about a bit [3 countries on 2 continents so far], I am fairly flexible where I live. And I know, if I set my mind on it - I can do it... even move to US.
I'd rather win one of those Euromillion lottery jackpots - then country of residence will be irrelevant
O my God,Can you please take some more English lessons?Your language skills are just awful and you are a candidate for the green card?Shame on you?

jaagoda, I will explain You everything once again from scratch
1. I wasn't selected , my status is still "HAS NOT BEEN SELECTED"
2. Yesterday, I placed information here from out polish forum, that we have one lady who claims that she has been selected.
3. She claims that her number is EU29XXX
Moreover, she told us that:
4 on 1 may she had status "HAS NOT BEEN SELECTED"
5 in the meantime, when she checked she had status "HAS NOT BEEN SELECTED"
6 yesterday, her status has changed, and now her status is "You are among those randomly selected..."
7 her date of selection is 1, may 2012, but in the period from 1 may till 22 october her status was "HAS NOT BEEN SELECTED"
Do whatever You want with this information.

I ask that you please be tolerant - not everyone on this forum has English as a first language, sometimes it isn't even their second. Attacking someone's language ability - actually, attacking anyone here for any reason, is shameful.
Please take your judgements elsewhere if you do not intend to treat everyone fairly here.

The problem is not in the poor english of some people here like me...the problem is in:
1. accepting the reality
2. understanding the rules of probability.
When I registered here yesterday, many people belived here that there was no second draw, when I told them that I guess they are wrong and I have some evidence from another forum, I received many insulting short private messages "f**k yourself" etc.
But I was right because we have onother user selected yerterday from EU with EU27XXX number.
It's likely that he/she received also a lof of messages like me "f**k yoursefl "
People on that forum want to belive in Santa Claus and we have to leave them alone with their belief that there was no second selection.

Guys can anybody explain me :
1- In 1st May 2012, 100K people have been selected for the DV 2013 ? or less ? because what I don't understand here, is that there is a guy from EU that has been selected in the second draw of 22/10/2012 and has a CN of 27k , his CN is inside the range of 100K, what does it mean ?
2- it means that in the 1st May 2012 a number below 100K have been selected, example 80k and 20k remaining have been selected yesterday ?
3- The overall number selected for this year either in 1st may 2012 or 22 October 2012 will not exceed 100k ?
thanks

3. In the case of need more persons are informed in one or more batches up to total number of 100k previously drawn;

let's go one by one
1. You mean in May 1st, 100k people have been selected and noticed ?
2. what you mean 60k are selected ? where are the 40k remaining ?
3. the people who are selected in 22 October should have CN higher than 100k ?
thanks for explaining me
Out of the drawn 100k entries only statistics (selected entries per country) are widely published.
Those entries pass next the selection process: 60k on May 1 and other possibly later.
So finally no person should have number bigger than 100k.

I have a CN of AF75000 , that means i wont be able to have an interview if the first 50k will already have their interview visa and succeed on it ? a person who has been selected in 22 october , can have an interview before me ?
I am not sure about the priority of processing of CNs. I think so called cut-off numbers of entries being processed in given months for a given region are published each month. Generally the date of interview is set after you have sent the required documents to KCC. If someone who was selected in October acts faster he may pass interview earlier and all interviews are stopped when 50 000 persons were interviewed and accepted.

so why they select the double of the number that they will take ?
Because the turnout is usually poor;they have to select more ppl to maximize visa issuance.
Check out the table below
Immigrant Number Use for Visa Issuances and Adjustments of Status in the Diversity Immigrant Category Fiscal Years 1995-2011
| Fiscal year | 1995 | 1996 | 1997 | 1998 | 1999 | 2000 | 2001 | 2002 | 2003 | 2004 | 2005 | 2006 | 2007 | 2008 | 2009 | 2010 | 2011 |
| Grand total | 55,058 | 54,162 | 55,027 | 51,565 | 54,115 | 47,715 | 45,450 | 43,368 | 50,810 | 48,044 | 48,151 | 46,145 | 40,076 | 46,633 | 48,030 | 51,312 | 51,118 |
...
true but the probability that all of them have sent their docs to KCC,are eligible & will all pass the interview is next to impossible.
If his/her CN is lower than yours,then they will have their interviews before u.
In DV2011,Kenyan thread,a member who had a CN of 92*** did his interview in early sept & passed....so we r in safe waters

Obee my friende that mean 1 person selected over two will not have the visa either by :
1- not satisfying the requirements
2- did not even noticed that he has won
3- his CN is high to be called for an interview

Maan this Re-Selection thing is so insane. Its litrally a mental torture to all of us who are hoping due to some words posted by KCC who do not even care.
I mean why cant KCC be straight. If they were able to post in their Site that there would be a re-selection on 22nd, jus why cant they post that there is non or stuff like that rather than having their so called infamous lines stating you are not selected and check early october. when the hell is this early october according to KCC. Is it not past oct for KCC or are they living in a diff planet. Come on maan its limits !
Why cant you guys just be fair and inform the public if not everything atleast a little bit of transparancy of what the outcome is?

not necessarily so...but I do think it is like 1 out of 1.1 or less.
The fact that they had the balls to inform us that we r selectees is indicative that they r sure that we'll be current
