So you suggest those that get field checked go to the head of the line? And the HQ-checked get put off until later?
That line's pretty deep. To do so means that the HQ-checked submission would somehow get less priority. This seems to put those submitters who don't have access to a field checker at a strong disadvantage. Maybe someday the field checked backlog would drop to zero and HQ submissions would get their day? And if you're not arguing this, then we must presume that the submissions get checked on the basis of "when-logged-in" to DXCC whether field checked or HQ-checked. So your suggestion would somehow force, on a weekly basis, having the field-checked submissions processed first during their "week" and the HQ-check last? How does this help the huge backlog? Doesn't seem well thought out. Frankly John, the problem is with the lack of adequate staffing to handle the backlog. _____ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, March 16, 2008 9:49 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: DX Chat Subject: Re: [DX-CHAT] Re: Card Checkers David: You would think so. Given the large backlog lately, I made a "very friendly" suggestion to Bill Moore that they sort the submittals into 2 piles (Field Checked and Physical Cards), and have the bulk of their effort directed at Physical Card submittals. My belief was that the time required to unbundle a wad of cards, sort them into groups, physically review each card, enter the credit info, and then put that cards back into a bundle and send them on back to the sender requires quite a bit more time than entering the credit info from a field card check list. Even with a smaller effort, I would think that field checked card submittals would move along very quickly, and the backlog reduced more quickly. My suggestion was ignored.
