I did send in an application to the Center for Modern Rationality but I haven't heard back

Please email me (elcenia@gmail.com) and tell me which types of work you wanted. There has been a spreadsheet-tracking issue, and I'm not sure who I have and haven't reached yet. (I'm considering just mass-mailing everybody on the list with "if you haven't heard from me before, please let me know and I can give you sample work". Thoughts on whether this would be more obnoxious than helpful?)

Seems like from the number of people which seem to be still waiting for replies, much more helpful than obnoxious.

Email sent!

I think people would appreciate knowing that they might still have a shot even if they haven't heard anything. You could maybe ask Eliezer to put a note that you're still wading through applications in his next HPMOR author's note. =P Otherwise, I think a mass email would not be too annoying to those who have already heard from you and very much appreciated by those who haven't.
