Another quick poll. I don't mind the wait times for some cases in this category; others are a little more frustrating.
Mine is 31st May 2007. |

And I suddenly only have three non-first pass reviews:
27 March 2008 and two from 8 September 2008, though I have some declines I'm considering.

| That's interesting. Will a fourth pass even get considered? |

I have often wondered about this. Here's a quote from benj's FAQ
quote:
For clarity, you may make a brief (maximum of 100 characters) explanation of your review in the Further Details box on the edit review screen, but if, after resubmitting with this additional information, the review is still declined THE EDITOR'S DECISION IS FINAL. We mean this. No further discussion is expected, partly to avoid delays in approving the remaining (usually sizeable) backlog of reviews, but mostly because these discussions can get lengthy and, to be brutally honest, "a bit fucking irritating".
I have always taken that to mean what it says. Now I always add an explanation for my reviews. And if they are declined, I try to come up with something better. But, of course, I am perfect!

A nth pass review will be considered, surely, as long as its been amended so that it hasnt been submitted in the same form more than twice.
In fact probably submitting the same form three times should be acceptable if one of the declines was "dont understand" in which case 1. submission 2. explanation and 3. appeal is fair enough.

| I take it to be fine to submit more than twice if any rejections are for exceeding the quota or are just invalid (e.g. say that a review is a duplicate when it is in fact older). |

I remember the days that I was an oracle in my pending list alone. 
My pending list was empty 15 mins ago, not anymore, I just wrote two reviews. |

Surely that's not a second pass Monty??
BTW, my oldest pending review is now processed (a decline sadly), so only one more 2nd pass to go then it's all recent efforts. Talking of recent efforts I'm really impressed with the backlog clearance the MERPs have taken on. Excellent! |

That was probably a resubmit from your declined pile? |

How old is your oldest non-first-pass review?
