Journal Timex's Journal: I have this theory... 3

My previous JE was submitted as a story. It's been a week now, and not even a rejection.

Here's my theory: the JE-as-a-story-submission system is a little whacked. Perhaps it should have a more specific link, for cases when someone writes a JE, submits it as a story, and one or more JEs have been written in the time it takes an Editor to finally go check it out.

There's a reason for my theory, though. I got this rejection slip (standard Slashdot formatting butchering expected):

Curious... Fri Mar 17, '06 11:26 PM Rejected

The JE that was actually submitted was a few before that, though. I can handle getting my story suggestions "rejected". It happens to submissions all the time. It would just be nice to have them rejected for the right reason.

This discussion was created by Timex (11710) for no Foes, but now has been archived. No new comments can be posted.

  • I've had that happen before too. I emailed Taco, and he said that's usually because it's still being considered for something. Usually an up-coming slashback, or quickies article. In my case it was eventually rejected.
