Wayfarer queue overload solution ?

With 40 nomination via pokemon go and soon 40 more via ingress review queues are extending to years of waiting.
Why not granting nomination to those who review only ? like 10 agreements for 1 nomination.
And people would see what's right instead of nominating every trees, random bridge, lamp posts or street sign

Huh, weirdly I'm finding thay my nominations are coming through a lot quicker now, about 2 months ago I'd be lucky to get a nomination returned (accept or reject) once a week. But in the last 10 days, I've had o er 30 returned, so it seems the backlog mught be getting cleared faster
My agreement had a huge increase this week... Hopefully things are starting to move smoothly now...
I went skating in the mountains two hours away to the north. Had 4 wayspots in the area accepted in a few days. All my local nominations haven't moved at all in months other than upgrades. Location, location, location. I've got nothing east, west, or south of here except ocean.
Do you guys live in a fairly large city? I still have submissions that are about 6 months old just chilling lol.
Im still getting that horrid "Well done! Come back soon when there's more to explore!" message whenever i try to review a few submissions in a row. I live in a city with over 1 million in population. From my own submission experience we are definitely backlogged and it sucks i cant review more than maybe 10-20 a day. :/
I haven't received a cooldown since I wait at least 20 seconds before submitting my reviews. Try that maybe?
Sounds more like wayfarer is having trouble registering your location. That or you did not set you bonus and hometown far enough away so they don't overlap your local review area. Currently the "showcase" in wayfarer is broken so we can't use it to determine if your location is not registering. I suggest opening ingress, hack a portal, wait a few minutes, log out of wayfarer, then log back in and see if you have a steady stream of things to review. If resetting your play location doesn't work then look into setting your hometown and bonus locations over 200km away in medium large cities.

I live in a desert township here in the middle east(Oman) and have the same experience. I thought I was getting the congratulations message because there were no more nominations to review 🤔 I thought this because after a while I would get nominations from the next country(NOT city/town), yes next country(Dubai, UAE) over.
I guess I was wrong. Because my nominations have also been on queue for a while now.
Looks like im SOL. My bonus location is set in another state but my hometown is set to the actual location i currently live since...well...i havent left my hometown. LOL. And back when i created my wayfarer account i dont think i fully understood what a hometown location meant,
It states hometown locations are permanent and cant be changed.
This is what i get on the daily:
Not even sure if its possible to even get a living Niantic wayfarer representative to look into my issue. :/
None of my ~200 nominations has been reviewed since may 2020 😅🙈
Only upgraded one got through.
And yes big and dense city (Paris)
