When a run is in submission limbo...

Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask:

But if a run is in submission limbo and taking a vary long time to get verified, presumably because the moderators of the game aren't active anymore, who should I try to contact about it?

[edit]: I'M NOT A CAVEMAN I ACTUALLY DO HAVE MANNERS.

Thanks in advance. :)

How long have you been waiting? There are a lot of mods for Limbo as is and generally takes a week depending on how busy the mods are

4 days, but the two mods of the game (up until today) hadn't logged on for 2 months and one for a year. The one that didn't login for 2 months logged in 4 days ago, so I'll try to message him. Thanks you two. :)

Reminder : A run verification is abnormal after a month

Yeah, guess I should have specified better. I run a few games and sometimes it's taken like 19 days, etc, and I never think twice about it, but they have moderators that log in way more frequently than 2 months and a year, respectively. I've never submitted to a game before where it had visibly inactive moderators.

Are you sure they're that inactive? At least three of the mods have been on today, but they aren't required to verify stuff every time they log into the site, I follow the game and a run was verified like 2 hours ago so they're still active in that regard

By site standards, mods are considered active enough if they log in at least once a week (and verify/reject runs if there are any). Only once it hits 3 weeks and no responses may there be a replacement. There are people who have jobs and can't be on point with approving runs all the time. If you're highly active in the game and the moderator isn't very active, try messaging them for a moderator position.

Tron_Javolta -- junkyard_dave isn't talking about the game Limbo. He's using the word limbo as a metaphor. He has not said what the game is.
