R-Type SMS version being rejected
Québec

Hi there,

Can any of the admins please explain to me why R-type frr the SMS is being rejected without reason?

Thanks

Given that like 6 people have posted something about their game getting rejected without reason leads me to suspect something's up. Like every game submitted in the last day or less got hit or something.

Ok thanks for the reply. At least i'm not alone in this. Must be an issue

I just resubmitted my game and put in the additional notes that I got no reason for rejection, hopefully they get back to us about that

Québec

I had tried that, asking for an explanation and it was rejected again without reason. Something is wrong.

Really strange because this random game seemed to be approved today and its literally nothing but a meme page: https://www.speedrun.com/noahkiq/

And another blatant meme page added today by the same person as above: https://www.speedrun.com/twow

Edit: both have since been removed

Site got hacked. Also, it's not April fools yet.. Interesting

Even weirder that the pages now redirect to other things than what they had before, what is goin' on lol

@Twan_Jones I brought it up in the Discord and the games have since been removed.

Yeah I had read, just weird how after they were removed you can see that it took an existing pages place by entering in already taken page URLs.

I'm not aware of what happened with those reject messages. Site code was modified by staff in the last few days, so maybe something broke for a bit? I tested a reject message just now and it worked. There are new requests in the queue as well. If anyone still having issues could they elaborate?

Game name urls take priority over username urls. If people are being stupid with URLs we can just remove them from modding. April Fools is a dumb day and people were probably being stupid.

Given that it was April Fool's, and only the games requested on that date appear to have had the problem, it makes sense that they just got deleted with a bunch of other stuff that probably got submitted. Mine in particular has a name that could easily fall into that trap. Some of the games, like Marvel Alliance 2 for PS4/Xbox, seemed off base for a rejection, particularly no response. I imagine they just caught up in mass April Fool's game request rejection scenario.

Haven't had any other issues since. I went and requested the game again; it hasn't been rejected for a couple days, so I imagine it's back in the normal que scenario.
