Dear Peter,

I will be honest in my response: I am completely snowed under with work at the moment with numerous important deadlines, so unfortunately I am unable to read your essay soon. However, from reading your abstract I hope (and intend) to read it soon. I will certainly not score you a 1. I also seem to have been hit recently with a few very low scores. I think that scoring 1 is a misunderstanding and misuse of the scoring system. No essay is worth 1, unless no effort has been put in at all.

Best regards,

Paul

Dear Jim,

I will be honest in my response: I am completely snowed under with work at the moment with numerous important deadlines, so unfortunately I am unable to read your essay at the moment. I hope to be free from these responsibilities soon, and after that I will read your essay as it sounds very interesting from your description here.

Thank you for your generous rating! (Unfortunately my score has dropped somewhat since then!)

Best,

Paul
