Generally yes, we try to handle reports within the day they're taken. We're human though and sometimes forget about things for a while, and a lot of those reports are legitimately hard to rule on so having a few nights to rest on them can be useful.

Just remember the proportion of 10 day reports to those handled that day is staggeringly low.

overturning a refund. gotta be near the top of the list of dumbest things a mod can do
Another dumb thing is taking a break from a site because you (fairly) didn't get to play a heart you wouldn't have been able to play in the first place
should probably go to sleep.

@bear i'm talking about a general rule of thumb. I remember last round I saw runwithfire had 3 reports in progress that would have been easy to moderate but had been left unchecked for days.

SDS/Jan 101 v2 as a setup and then this round is lame

By the way, if a mod has a report in progress for more than 3 days, I think that should be justifiable for another mod to snipe the report. Usually makes the other mod upset because they wanted to preserve a report, but sometimes they just forget to finish the report even if it's a simple report.
the report wasn't in IP for that long. it was only the appeal and refund request that were in IP for a sustained amount of time.

I on the other hand have more gold trophies than my teacher and mentor Anthony and I will surpass him in overall trophies as well. The student will become the master.

And 4.5 years after joining EpicMafia.com, I have finally won as many trophies as fourth places.

The mods involved have been pretty apologetic about the whole incident, so I don't know what you're trying to accomplish. I understand that you're bitter about it, though; I would be too.

However, suspending you from the round was the only feasible option after the heart was refunded.. The only negative effect from that is the stigma associated with it, which is unfortunate, but hopefully that's been cleared up now.

If a mistake can be fixed, you fix it. Its pretty simple. Steps are being taken by Slow (who made a thread about further clarifying the meteor rule) to ensure this sort of thing doesn't repeat itself. To be honest if I had handled the report personally this probably would have happened so I don't blame anyone at all here.

mistakes happen. it'd have been more egregious to let you play that heart.

I left this site once, the end

we'd made a technical error when analyzing the game regarding meta-gaming based around the meteor system and realized it a little late.

Personally I'm sorry about the entire situation.

i don't even care about not trophying, i just think it was handled pathetically. You gave me a heart back and then told me at the last second that i can't play it.

Don't leave me hanging, Vancy
are you, are you coming to the tree
where they strung up a man they say murdered three
strange things did happen here no stranger would it seem
if we met up at midnight in the hanging tree
