Unpublished Reviews Backlog

I submitted a review 12 hours ago and it has still not been published (or rejected). That has never happened before since we went to this new system. I was curious as to why and went into unpublished reviews, where I found a mountain of them. I just spent the past 20 minutes skimming through reviews and accepting or rejecting.
You don't need to know the club to have a decent sense as to whether a review is obvious shit or not. I like this new system, but it only works if we participate.

I'll try to at least contribute in that section more often going forward.
I've noticed that some guys will only participate for clubs that they know, but that will backfire on us with thinly reviewed clubs.
I publish/reject about 10-reviews per day mostly of clubs of interest but honestly not motivated to read any more than that of clubs of no interest to me
IMO a review should be automatically published after 24-hrs if it hasn't gotten enough votes.
I do however pick one or two clubs that I don’t know to read reviews in each batch, but my reading of unpublished reviews is generally once a day in the early AM when there isn’t much on the discussion board.
I’m not sure of the fix for this but I don’t think auto publishing reviews would be good for the system.
In that vein some how a review of Cheetah WPB got published today that had no useable information at all
It’s the marginal ones that I have the most trouble with. The ones that *might* be presenting good info, but I can’t tell because I know nothing about the club.

When I review clubs (as others have said), I dont know anything about the club so Im not sure if they are correctly describing the club or listing prices, etc.
As far as which reviews, I always look for ones I know about first, but if I don't see any I'll vote on a couple random ones that seem obviously well written or obviously garbage. I try to leave the mediocre ones for the people who may know the area better. If there is no low hanging fruit, I'll take a stab at those middle ground ones.
