Yup, you and Manzanita were the only two approvals--in fact you approved it initially when the only I details I mentioned were:Patlin said:That one must have slipped by me. Depending on how busy I am, I'll have more or less input on an adventure proposal. Was I one of the aprovals for that one? I'll have to read The Crux of the Matter at some point and see what it was you did.
I think my suggestion on the one I'm recalling was that the opportunity for paradox and/or for things to get horribly complicated with the particular plot device were fairly extreme. It would have been somewhat disruptive to the campaign world, for example, if Orussus had been retroactively blown up. I probably could have been convinced to aprove the adventure if the DM was comfortable with the possible problems. For example, another adventure proposed seemed likely to me to derail and go in a quite different direction than the DM anticipated, with the party possibly double crossing their employer. I got a response that the DM thought that would be perfectly OK, and that he was prepared to DM the adventure if it went in that direction. That was good enough for me, and I promptly aproved it.
The aproval process is really more of an opportunity to talk out the proposed adventure than anything else.
It involves some of the NPCs who are out and about in my other adventures, and indeed it ties in the loose threads from all three of them. As such, it is something of a culmination adventure. The exact details depend on what they do, what it involves chronomancers, a broken tower, eidolons, personality fragments, undead, ley lines, spatial/temporal distortions, and more.
I guess I just seemed more confident that I could resolve any temporal issues

I'm not complaining though--I think I may be both the least supervised and most supervised GM in LEW and LEB at the same time (I have a high percentage of games with no judges, but all those games have a high rate of judges among the players, plus I'm a judge)
