cache approval by reviewer

[+MREAGLEWO1]

Not rushing anyone. I am just wondering if there is a way to see where my cache in a que. It was submitted on 11//08 Its been more than 72hrs i believe.

 

Thanks for your help.

 

The waypoint for the cache in question is: GC1HYHD

No - the reviewers get an e-mail and then go to the listing. Before people jump all over this and say "be patient, the reviewers are volunteers and have lives besides reviewing caches." Just be patient, I get excited also when I have one waiting - It will happen.

 

Edit - I see you have a bunch published already - how long did those take?

i know they are volunteer too... i am one as well in othe orgs. I was just wondering. if we didnt have the reviewers, we wouldnt be able to cache since the caches would have been able to be approved. I was just wondering since that specific cache has a veteran idea behind it so it would have been great day to find it and pay our respects.

To the OP, I checked, and your listing is properly awaiting review in the queue. It is indeed a bit over the 72 hour service goal for an initial review. I am sure that your reviewer will be along shortly. Thank you for your patience, and thanks for hiding a cache.

Ummm, no, that's not how it works.

How are the caches ordered in the queue? By date placed or by the order of the waypoint ID?

Ummm, no, that's not how it works.

 

So how does it work? When do reviewers know there's a listing waiting?

There's always a list waiting for the reviewer.

Just make sure you check (or uncheck, can't remember which) the spot that allows the reviewer to see it. The last cache I did, I forgot to do that and then wondered why it wasn't being posted. DUHH!!

It's based on the size of your PayPal deposits to the reviewer's account.

Or what sort of gifts you give. Chocolate is highly prized among several Reviewers. But you should try to figure out what your Reviewer prefers.

I switched from PayPal to CHC ("cold hard cache") yesterday. My first subsequent cache took only 10 hours to be published.

 

You may consider this a recommendation. Carry on.

I look at my queue.

Before sending chocolate, check on the species of your reviewer. The theobromine in chocolate can be toxic to dogs.
