How long should judgings take?

[Edward Judorne]

For those that are truly impatient, try this. Pick out ten already judged threads (no fair picking any you were in) of varying lengths, read all of them all the way through, then write your own opinion on a piece of scrap paper on what you would score everyone in each of the catagories and the overall score. Now try to do that everyday for a week, then for a month, then a year. That is what you might be asking the judges to do if you you don't cut them some slack. so appreciate that they are just willing to judge for no pay and leave it at that. Thank you.

I tend to think players are reasonable to get a little antsy after a week or so. I've probably judged more threads than anyone else posting here. By all means I do feel the players should show some gratitude, but Althanas is for the players, and the players should be served.
