'''You should always try to review the add-ons near the top of queue.''' Always favor the add-ons that have been waiting for the longest time. Having said that, the few add-ons that are at the very top and have been waiting for a much longer time than the rest (sometimes multiple days more than the next one) are likely to be add-ons that require special review from an admin editor, or are awaiting a response from the developer. Try to focus on the first 10 or 15 add-ons in the queues. There should be a couple there that you can review. | '''You should always try to review the add-ons near the top of queue.'''
