| Feb 23, 2017 at 8:49 | comment | added | Prof. Santa Claus | Another backdoor is that you know the EiC of a journal and you can give him/her a call when there is a reject. I know of a prof who does this regularly. Also, look up 'guanxi'. If you have enough of this, papers get in, and this is the 'normal' practice of certain people. | |
| Feb 23, 2017 at 8:43 | comment | added | Prof. Santa Claus | a 'back door' is simply to send a draft of your paper to likely reviewers for the conference. If you are famous, you tend to know most of the people on the program committee anyway -- birds of feather flock together. You get their feedback and if they hate it, don't submit. If they like it submit. | |
| Feb 23, 2017 at 8:36 | comment | added | Prof. Santa Claus | What do they do with those rejected papers? Revise and submit next year? or do they dump them into lower ranked conferences? Is the strategy then to always push all rejected papers, given 'infinite time', into top venues? | |
