Subject: Site submissions lost for the 8th & 9th?
Written By: ChrisG on 10/12/03 at 01:30 a.m.
I discovered the "amiright.com" web site a few days ago and went wild, putting in entries for a couple of hours. Now I've come back to see that it looks like your entries must have been wiped out on those days!!!!

No entries on the 8th and 9th... also, you have exactly 75 entries on each other day entered. Do you just do 75 and dump the rest?
How does this work?

I think... the 8th and 9th went without submissions because Chuck didn't get onto the computer until late because he was doing something... forget what...
75 entries at a time get processed every weekday for the sake of the not getting too immersed in the backlog. I believe all of them do get processed though - I'm sure there's exceptions for stupid ones or obviously wrong ones - when that's not the case they will get processed.

submissions are queued.. and approved long after they are submittied.. I don't approve the misheard lyrics anymore, there's an editor for that.. he doesn't always get enough approved ahead of time, so they get backed up and none displayed on the days when they've run out of approved entries.. it's a lot of work to read all the stuff submitted, and very time consuming, so that's why there isn't always new stuff on the site..
