Hmmm... interesting concerns there, FormatC...
However, most of them seem to be unfounded
Missions come in in chronological order, and generally get 'assigned' that way. However, some reviewers work faster than others which is why some more recent missions get reviewed before older ones.
Sometimes missions do get skipped... the reasons could be any one of many things. ie. The mission is faulty (so the author needs to be contacted and something sorted out), 56kers like me can't get all the addons, the reviewers computer doesn't have the grunt to play the mission as it should be played... etc etc.
However the review team are a fair and reasonable bunch. There isn't favouritism when it comes to marking, and the system gets adheared to 'most' of the time
The OFP editing community isn't that large, so many of us know most of the guys whose missions we review. That can't be helped, and I reckon we do a reasonably good job of staying un-bias.
OFP Mission reviewing is by it's very nature subjective rather than objective, but I think we manage to get reasonably balanced reviews across the board.
As Armstrong pointed out, if you think you'd be good at the job, please feel free to apply
