record not reviewed for 4 months

[tender matrix]

i've sent the record for yata on the 3rd of january and it still hasn't been reviewed. i get the fact that there a lot of submissions and i totally agree with that but can you be fair and review my submission because i can literally see records that have been submitted way more recent than mine being reviewed and accepted. one occurance i saw that in is theres a record on yata that was uploaded 2 days ago and it was accepted while mine has been sitting there for 4 months

also that same day i submitted a record for cat planet and it got reviewed and accepted like a month later so thats why im confused this one is taking so long

based on the spot in the queue it should get accepted in 3-4 days

yeah sometimes they get accepted in 10 minutes and other times it takes multiple months

hi! yes, like you said there are a lot of submissions in the queue and therefore it takes a lot of time for a submission to go from the back of the queue to the top

as for other records getting accepted faster than yours, i can think of 2 reasons for why this might have been the case:

1. the other person had AREDL+ and therefore their record was in the priority queue, getting to the top of the queue faster than yours
2. a list helper was going through records of a specific level (in this case yatagarasu) and happened to check the other person’s record

while the 2nd thing can happen sometimes and your record can get accepted a lot faster than usual despite not having AREDL+, the realistic wait time to have a record go through the queue is about 4+ months due to the giant backlog. i hope you understand and i hope this clears things up!
