Guys I am a re-applicant and this happened with me last year as well.
Chicago calls/emails each and every admit one day before the ding mail.

So trust me - all the people who have not yet received the good news, will get a status update email from Chicago at sharp 9:00am (Chicago Time) which will be either a W/L or a ding.
Thank U for the 'hope' :x

As per my interview experience, I was told by the Interviewer that it would have been a privilege for him to have someone like me in his class. He also compared me to Mr X who was his batch mate and now the CEO of a company. He said I reminded him of Mr X. Now I don't have a call. I don't get the logic. Did the rest of you also hear great comments from your interviewer ? In that case I think its a norm for Booth to praise everyone they interview

Very same here. This is why not only my heart but also my mind believes what Rhyme wrote above.

Uh oh, it looks as if I may be mistaken this year. I was basing my comment that calls would continue on some comments made by one of the admissions directors, but I just received some comments from someone else (also an adcom) indicating that there wouldn't be more calls. I'm not sure if perhaps its just a question that one of them isn't making calls today and the other is, but I may deserve a lot of negative karma for posting that prematurely.
Looks like this year is a toss up.

You may want to kill me in about 12 minutes. It looks like I might be mistaken.
