Dear @Tony
I'd like to ask how the aforementioned tab is working or how it is set up to work, if it is possible. Why is it that some novels never appear on the front page (even if, just for maybe ten to fifteen minutes, considering the amount of works that may be published per day, that exposure can still be a big boost) and start on what I will now refer to as "Page 2" from here on.
My questions are:
PS: I am posting this in this section because I am unsure if it's a bug or not.
As for my experience:
The yellow line represents the point where, for the past 6ish or so hours, the latest series was visible for me. Logically speaking, any new novel getting into the submission queue should come after that point.
Yet, here I am, with multiple other works that, along with mine, rank waaaay off in the back. I checked, and they were published 4-ish hours ago, compared to my signaled cutoff point, which is at 15 hours ago, when I posted this thread. The three before it (first image) are mixed with their uploaded time, being 4-7-1 (from right to left) hour ago, respectively.
My question is... Again... what is going on? And why?
What it can't be:
Thank you very much.

My questions are:
- Is this a bug?
- Is this intended to work like this?
- If it is intended, what are the criteria for novels to have a chance on the front page, which are factors that make it unavailable?

What it can't be:
- The mature or adult tag, because novels without those are also in there, down at the bottom.
- It can't be the cover.
- It can't be the content warning because novels without it are also here and on the front page with said content warning.
- If it is the fact that my book is a re-release (a rewrite of my first story), I could still accept it, but then, why are others, who are first publishers with fresh books, are also getting skipped?
Thank you very much.

The Main Page's "Latest Series" tab is either broken or its function needs clarification.
