Thank you for your reply. I had suspected it was the second chance pool but I had never seen that mechanism in action so I thought it'd get re-posted, not that it would appear as if it had just been posted. I had read it when it first appeared.

Yeah that part of the second-chance pool is a bit confusing, it has tripped me up a few times as well.

Pro-tip: If you look below the submission title you will see a text saying “3 days ago” or similar. Hover with the cursor over that text, and you will see the original publication timestamp. (Or use view source in your browser.)

Thanks for the tip!
