Just got a rejection after 196 days (fantasy, 120k) so a nice reminder that agents are still reading even after the QT default CNR!

According to publisher's marketplace he hasn't made any deals since December of 2016, how is that possible?

141k adult fantasy. Polite rejection, apologized for the delay in response.
Thank you for your query and for letting me have a look at your work. I apologize for the impersonal nature of this email but I receive so many queries that it makes it impossible for me to respond personally to each one. Thank you for your patience.
Unfortunately, I don’t feel that this is right for me, so I’m passing. Just because I wasn’t quite drawn in, however, doesn’t mean there isn’t another agent out there who will love it. I encourage you to continue to submit elsewhere.
Thanks again for thinking of me, and I wish you all the best in your endeavors.
Sincerely,
Don
