FR: 1/5/2022 Same form rejection from entire agency

I guess they're cleaning out all those #PitMad entries. I notice she deleted the tweet. Have a sinking suspicion she was overwhelmed with a flood of entries and after a "polite" amount of time they're just sending out mass form rejections.

ER: 01/03/22 -- seems like if it's not touched for a month they send out form rejections first thing in the morning!

Hi,

Thank you for thinking of us with this project. Although we won’t be pursuing representation, we appreciate the opportunity to consider your work, and wish you every success with it.

Question: my query is going on 90 days, and normally I'd assume it's just CNR, but I never received a confirmation email saying that the query was received, which the website says the agency sends automatically. Have others received confirmation notices or no?

EDIT: Sent a follow-up email and got the auto-response.

@Mytherea

I received a confirmation email immediately when submitted. You might follow up and make sure she received it.
