I completely empathize with the forgotten-about feeling, because that's exactly how I felt until my number came up Sunday morning (of all days!), and my Edit Design link finally disappeared and I was asked to confirm my delivery details, nearly 11 weeks after placing my order and being given the same "12-16 weeks" delivery estimate that we all received back in May.
As some of my posts upthread (and in other AWD delivery threads) reflected, I was growing increasingly worried that my order had somehow become "lost" (or perhaps even "ignored" by a lazy ISA), and frustrated to see others with later reservation/order dates with similar configurations move forward in the process. While I won't pretend to understand the precise methods driving this madness, what I will say is this: waiting this long completely sucks, and Tesla sure as heck could be more forthcoming and transparent... but don't let those imperfections in the process own you. Your turn will come up, perhaps when you least expect it. And when it does, all of the worry and frustration that you carried for weeks melt away into irrelevance.
(Then you get to start waiting again.
