Swedrami: I'd definitely leave out the part about "rejected" and go with something more diplomatic, asking for understanding and being a little more patient for the final verdict, though.
Something more along the lines of what I proposed over in the other thread.
I fully agree that a more polite way of wording should be used instead. How about "postponed" or "taken under consideration" but with the part "please try contact us later and send another form" Something more along the lines of what I proposed over in the other thread.
And hey, I posted some on that thread too, however I'm not sure what was your final example, was it this?
"Hey, your submission has been received, but with the pandemic going on and having to work from home and the sheer number of emails, support tickets and game submissions our comparatively small staff's still slowly working their way through we might not be able to properly review your submitted game in a timely manner and it may, in fact, take us several months before we even get to your submission."
If yes, it's not good since it's against corporate ethics to say to your client (current, past, future, potential) that something is working badly, you are understaffed or have to work slowly. I would prefer the original reply than that. So how about we create something spectacular right now and right here without posting more links?
