    Well you didn't post your scores in the first place, so that's all the information you needed I guess.

    ...I wouldn't think so considering the levels are rather quick...

    Roughly 24 potatoes per level yea? So 10 levels at maybe 20 seconds a pop?

    (This is not the exact... just pure guesstimation :p)

    You need to either start learning review scores yourself, or find yourself a list of review scores.

    And maybe consider trying a game a few times legitly before you SS with a completely made up time.

    EPC's review is 184, assuming I remember correctly. You can't get that avatar w/o going above review.

    That being said, I did the same thing about a year ago and didn't get frozen for it; I suppose it just depends on the time and how your account looks.

    I'm still waiting for my reviewed score to process...

    And I think Tharaux is still too from his Scores that he sent for the NP competition...

    Since that was my first review I don't know how long but it looks 2 weeks + at the moment :p

    Well what was the time you used? If you used a realistic time you probably wont be iced, but if you used a time like 2 minutes then there may be a problem xD

    He already hinted he used 4 minutes...

    From time and score you said.. It looks fairly right.

    Here is a list of times I found laying around posted by another user. These are only avatar games.

    Now if you look closely at Extreme Potato Counter:

    GameID: 226 Score: 200-210 Time: 360-420 Extreme Potato Counter

    That's 6 minutes+

    However, you can pause between levels yea? Maybe they paused for longer? :lol:

    I know it takes me about 7-8 minutes to do it legit without pausing, and some times longer depending on how far I have to go in the game to do it so hopefully he'll be okay and they'll allow the score

    this literally just happened to me, on the same game. and my score was 230 in just over 2 minutes, so if they accepted mine there should be absolutely no reason for you to be worried

    the max amount of potatoes goes up by 5 each level, and the the levels start off being 10 seconds and end around 20 seconds. after I did the math I felt better, but I was still worried until they accepted my score that same day. on the weekend no less

    Wow they reviewed your score on the weekend? Huh, I always thought it had to wait until TNT came back to work on Monday. Maybe they have a bot weed through some reviews and save ones that might be flagged as more suspicious for a real person? Hmm.. interesting.

    it was certainly a pleasant surprise. But whatever the reason was, if they deemed my score/time acceptable, which was both slightly higher and half the time, I can't imagine it not working out for you, unless you've been frozen before recently and they have a reason to look more carefully

    Grats to you, then. :O

    Anyways, generally speaking, the amount of time it takes for a review to go through varies. Somedays, e.g. reset night on games like Meepit Juice Break, review scores go through in a matter of hours.

    Other games, like Kiss the Mortog on reset night, take well over 2 weeks to be reviewed.

    Only time I tried SSing EPC and got reviewed, my score was accepted within a week.

    I don't understand why you wouldn't test all scores on a side account first, then do them on your main. But then again i guess that's kind of hypocritical coming from a guy who gets iced a lot.

    the problem for me was I was following a guide that said the review score was 300. I trusted that guide, much to my chagrin, as they apparently have nearly halved that score. Now I will be more cautious and make sure that all the reviews are up to date before doing anything.

    I feel like they are pretty lienent on score reviews when you only turn up one. People get off sometimes submitting a score that is actually slightly impossible timewise.
