How long does it usually take for Dan or Tom, or anyone else who handles reviews to decide to get to reviewing a game? I think I've had Bullies and Nerds ( http://www.byond.com/hub/hanns/bulliesandnerds ) requesting a review for about 4 or more months now, none. O'nu 99 has suffered the same, but a month or two behind.

From what I have gathered, the reviews can and will take some time because Dan, Tom and Deadron (Who are the ones who handle reviews) are quite busy and have alot of other things to do.

Anyway, if I am actually incorrect please correct me :)

There are two active reviewers, and we're trying to speed up the process. There are hundreds of crap entries we have to wade through...everyone who submits unfinished or unpublishable stuff slows down the process for everyone else!

Because of that, we are not 100% fair. It's not "first in first out" -- if we see an entry from someone with a proven track record, we're gonna try their entry first.

Also, RPG and FanGames are the most congested, but a lot of effort is being put into getting through them.
