Official response from Vinny (staff):

We have different queues for images than text so they are being processed at different rates. Other things, like minor changes, are just sometimes faster because they don't take as much time to verify or approve. For the most part though, we are going through all the major content submissions on a first come first serve basis.

The back of the queue is around 58 hours. As you can guess, we're pretty slammed, but working to get things moving faster and faster. That's one of the reasons you may see some of your submissions processed before others, as we refine our approval process.

Let me know if you have any concerns, we're definitely eager to get everyone's stuff up ASAP.

thanks,
Vinny

Coo.

I think the main thing is to just remain patient. The opened the site and got raped with submissions, plus we're still in beta. We kinda' shouldn't have expected everything to be perfect.

You have to admit, this website is pretty damn good for a Beta. But we will just have to wait, they're only four guys with lives, well somewhat....

I wonder how much you earn for providing actual info on a game... Sadly, I have yet to know since my submissions have yet to be approved.:(

Could anyone tell me?

The points range on the quantity and quality of information you provide. The more new, high quality information you submit, will grant you a higher point total.

Alright, thanks for your insight, friend.:)

Fortunately, I've submitting some quality articles, and hopefully they will boost my score.

If it's backed up 58 hours, means I gotta wait about another day for my stuff to get looked at. Well good to know.

Yeah, Jeff mentioned in his most recent blog that the goal is to hit the 24 hour mark. They are working really hard to crank out these submission approvals, so patience is key.

yeah, until things don't go 24 hours, they will keep hiring and tweaking. thats why editorial content is on the low right now.
