Latest review

First review round: 14.3 weeks. Overall rating: 0 (very bad). Outcome: Rejected.

Motivation:
I had to wait more than one year for a decision after the first review round. All the comments by the reviewers were addressed in the second round but the editors decided to send to the reviewers again. One of the reviewers rejected the paper using completely new arguments that had never been raised before referring to points that were in the original paper.
