How long does it take to show a new submission in the database?

Hello :)

In December I submitted a game, "Il Tesoro di Malpetra" (A. De Vivo - Load'n'Run n.35 - 1987). I received a confirmation that the game has been inserted in the database but I can't see it.
I'm asking because I'm doing a remake of this adventure (in Scratch), and so I ripped the graphics and so I made some assets. I have the solution, too.

The only game by A. De Vivo that I can see in the database is https://solutionarchive.com/game/id%2C8 ... 2C+La.html

I'll add that other game now for you.

I'm guessing that it's a GAC game by quickly looking at the screenshots?

Yes it's a GAC game.

Thank you for the add!

When you submit data, it is not automatically added to the database. The data is vetoed and manually added by an administrator. The administrators do this on a voluntary basis when they have some spare time, so it might take a while for your additions to appear. I have had some that have taken months. Also, the submissions are not processed on a first-come, first-served basis. If something looks difficult to process, it might be delayed while the easy ones are handled.

As this is a manual process, the administrators sometimes make mistakes. I have had things disappear from my queued submissions, but they've never appeared on the web site and I've had to resubmit them.

Please be patient. If something doesn't appear, check your queued submissions and if it's not there, try again.

It was definitely worth Oloturia posting, as the game wasn't in the database and there was no submission in the queue.
