The first time you comment here, your comment is sent automatically to moderation and will not be visible until it has been manually approved. It sucks, I know, but trust me, not doing that would suck even worse; the automated spam-catcher stops most of the spam, but lately we’ve been getting 5-20 messages in Cyrillic a day that I have to manually screen, and some posts have become virtually untenable (the Hogswatch winners post, for instance, was clearly grabbed by a spam site; setting it private hasn’t stopped the deluge, and I may need to delete it to kill the link).

Posting multiple times won’t get you out of moderation faster, especially not when it’s a giveaway post; any entries past the first will not be eligible to win. So please take a gulp and take a breath and go ahead and wait for the mods (usually me) to unblock things.
