Welcome to the club.
It's a lottery. You submit an article -- an if enough people in a narrow niche are online at that exact time, read the article, and come back and vote? You're in the game.
It's not a meritocracy. Not even close. If you like submitting, keep it up! I do. But don't expect any feedback, positive or negative, unfortunately.
- Turing_Machine 11y ago"It's not a meritocracy. Not even close." In one sense, but in others it kinda is. It's really a mixture. It has to be both good and lucky. "Total crap" implies "will not make front page", but the converse is not true. "Will not make the front page" doesn't really imply anything, much less "total crap". Or so I see it, having had several articles make the front page and others that seemed to me to be of equal (or in some cases, greater) interest sink without a trace.
