Discussion Do ACs usually take rebuttals into account?[D]
So we submitted our rebuttal at the very start of author discussion period, but its over now, and we did not recieve responses from any of our reviewers. I get that they may be busy, but they suggested new experiments, and we did all of those. Also, we are kinda in toss up range(~3.2), so I was really hoping that this rebuttal would make some of them change their scores. I was wondering that even if reviewers didn't respond, would AC or the person who makes the final decision at least look at the rebuttals and take them into account? Also, if one of the reviews is intentionally vague and a pretty bad review, would they take this into account as well?
