How can I contact the gatekeepers, so to speak :) I just wonder what's happening with this review I've written 2 weeks ago that's still frozen in hell.

Thanks.

We'll get to your review, the 22nd for Slayer's World Painted Blood, soon enough.

It's fine. The Razor album review I posted before, which was my only one before this was accepted the same day pretty much, so I was just wondering about what I should expect generally.

It varies a lot because the moderators checking the review queue might be busy for a while. They are also more likely to more quickly check the reviews they feel inspired by, hence why yours being the 22nd for said Slayer album is relevant to your wait...

I've been busy lately, but should have the queue cleared today.

Mine’s been in a queue for over a week. I’m guessing reviewers who have been around for awhile get prioritized as well. I saw a review the other day that referenced the Will Smith/Chris Rock incident and it was posted a day or two after.

Best and/or most prolific writers are often 'scribes', which means they have their reviews automatically accepted upon submission, so that may be why.

Anyone else is equally subject to the mods' real life commitments :-D

Apologizes if this is the bad place to ask this, but may I ask which review had that reference? Because I haven't seen it yet.

My apologies, it wasn’t Slapgate they mentioned, it was the death of Taylor Hawkins. He died on March 25th and the review was posted on the 28th.
