...someone in a game I ran last night stated that someone from wizards said that Silvery Barbs does not work on Critical Hits.
I've read the spell description, the rules and such, and I can find nothing that even points to this. Does anyone have any official quotes to support this?
As I see it, a Critical Hit would be re-rolled if Silvery Barbs is used on it...and that is how my games will be ruled until I know otherwise.
I've not heard of this limitation and it isn't in the spell description. Sounds like homebrew (maybe they heard of a WotC employee that uses this homebrew rule for their home game?) and not really "official" in any way.

RAW it works. It's kind of the main attraction of using Silvery Barbs over Shield...
