First review round: 6.0 weeks. Overall rating: 2 (moderate).
Outcome: Accepted.
Motivation:
The process was otherwise smooth, but one referee had clearly not read the manuscript carefully and returned a report with comments that were, frankly, strange. We prepared a detailed response, after which the manuscript remained under review for almost three months. During that period, we contacted the editor several times and received only template replies. When the acceptance finally arrived, it became clear that the delay had been caused by the same referee, who had not submitted the final report at all.
