Hi guys, it says Tie-braking rule for this round of invitation is October 23, 2017 at 15:38:27 UTC
Does this mean people who registered their EE profile after this time will not be considered?

Thank you for your reply!
So you are saying even if someone registered after October 23, 2017 at 15:58:27 UTC, as long as they score above 458, they will still be invited?

But I found another place that might say the contrary:
For example:

The highest ranked candidates are invited during rounds of invitations. If we issue 3,500 invitations during a round, the system will pick the top 3,500 candidates at that time. The cut-off for the round is set by the CRS and submission date of the 3,500th candidate. It could look something like this:

Rank CRS Profile submission

3499 422 February 5, 2017 at 11:32:01 Invited
3500 422 March 27, 2017 at 08:12:23 Invited
3501 422 March 27, 2017 at 9:54:39 Still in the pool
3502 423 June 3, 2017 at 22:57:12 Still in the pool

See how the guy ranked at 423 is not invited whereas they guy who ranked 422 but registered at an earlier date is invited?

Should we make another group for people who have received/will receive ITA from draw 77 so we can discuss documentations etc, post-ITA

This is interesting and annoying both at the same time. The system will automatically send invites depends on the date you submitted your profile, something which is new for me.

It Says, "We can now break ties between candidates with the same rank in the pool". In case of a CRS tie, the system will then rank all tied candidates based on the date and time that they submitted their profile.

So don't know why 423 is there.
It indeed is very weird. I find it counterintuitive as well. The only explanation I could think of is that the tie-breaking rule that's posted (October 23, 2017 at 15:58:27 UTC) will determine who are considered in this draw and who are not
