Bernard did you see this?
Yes. I do the backend but how SSSS is run is up to foreverphysics, mnstrviola, and whomever else they appoint.

Out of all the notes and tests submitted and approved by SSSS, about how many are requested not to be released to the public?

I asked forever this question a while ago on the IRC, I think she said it's something like 1/4 or 1/5.

mnstrviola and foreverphysics...
just in case you didn't get the suggestion...

I think it would be beneficial if unapproved submissions were released. That way obviously the people with access to the SSSS would have more material... and also, if the owner of the unapproved submission doesn't continue to work to improve it... someone can pick off where he/she left off so we could have extra tests. Even while people are working to improve their submission, I don't think it would hurt to upload what they have so far... it benefits the community as a whole.

You should email the SSSS address or PM one of them, they probably don't check this quite as often.

About 2 weeks back, I sent the revised version of a test I was trying to submit. Up until now, I have not received a single response, even when I sent out two reminders. All I asked for was for the mod to confirm that they had indeed received my revised test. Sending a third reminder is a bit excessive, so what should be my next course of action?

We have not received any emails from you since your initial submission. I'm not sure if it's a glitch in communication or if perhaps the email was typed incorrectly, but there isn't any record of you in the emails since your initial submission.

Please make sure you submitted it correctly and typed the email correctly.

I sent it only to my mod, I'll resend it [email protected] again then.
