Anyone else called to find out your November Physics GRE score?

So in case you didn't know, today is the day you can start calling and give 12 dollars to ETS(...) to find out your GRE score before the 23rd when you can see it online.

I still haven't finalized my list of schools so I called to find out my score, since it would help me decide on a range of schools.

Anyone else find out their score? How did you feel when you found out?
