Welcome, Izatright!
It's hard to really know, although it seems likely to me that the reject Lillie mentions here--
--had something seriously wrong with it beyond merely the story itself. If you haven't already, I strongly recommend a browse through section 3 of slushkiller.
Anyhow, regardless, hope your story finds a good home soon! (-:

Anyway, I have a question. Today I got a rejection from Analog--no big surprise. The thing is, I noticed the "submissions sent as recently as" date was a week past my submission date, and had climbed steadily during that week. So I figured maybe it wasn't an easy reject, maybe they considered it for at least one pair of eyes past the slush reader? Is that ridiculous? What do you guys and gals use as a standard for deciding if you're being considered, even briefly? Or is worthless to speculate based on that field data?

There was a shockingly quick analog R on the 29th Sept, (13 days) and that's still showing as the 'submission most recently sent'.
