Hey guys,
While the majority of submissions are resolved within 72 hours, some submissions certainly extend beyond that time span when additional crediting research is required, or specialist opinions are requested. For example, for a coin move submitted with no credits mentioned, the submission may be sent to Chris Kenner or Homer Liwag for expert reference. Similarly, for a card sleight, Jason England may need to locate a specific text to ensure originality.
The best way to ensure your submission is processed swiftly is to ensure any credits or historical references are included in the original submission. Nevertheless, I have sent a message this morning to our review panel on The Wire so we can make sure future submissions receive better communication updates throughout the review process, if and when the 72 hour period has elapsed. Apologies for the lack of clarity there - we will ensure this is resolved and improved this week!
