I am still waiting for the approval of a quiz on the Legend of Robin Hood. I have no complaint with the overworked editors, but rather with my 'Oh so human' impatience. I seem pathologically incapable of submitting and letting it go. Oh frailty, thy name is quiz-writer.

In the queue, your quiz is said to have been waiting since May 11 (yesterday). In your quiz, it says it was submitted on the 4th. If you've been going in and resaving the quiz, it places it back at the end of the queue. Otherwise, if you haven't, then an editor has already been working on it.

Thank you for the update. As I said, I am aware that it is my own fault that I keep putting it to the back of the queue.

That'd be it.

This looks like a combination of re-saving (an impulse I certainly sympathize with!) and the absence of your editor (me) due to way too much travel in a short amount of time. Sorry about the wait! I know I get antsy as soon as I put a quiz in the queue, way before I have any reason too. I figure that, if patience is a virtue, FunTrivia is really doing its bit to make all quiz-writers more virtuous.

Patience: A minor form of despair disguised as a virtue. ~Ambrose Bierce

Thanks for your post, it is so hard at my age to have to be virtuous again.
