One very important question- help please 
I’d appreciate if anyone else knows to acknowledge me
Does anyone know: is it allowed to change character features and clothes from first 3 chapters?
Eh close enough, around that same time.
I don’t find the answer there 
I’m new to episode and just submitted my contest story. I was just wondering, is the contest based on how many reads you get or how the episode judges like them?
Also, if anyone would like to read my story I’d really appreciate it!
Story name: Coffee Crush
Author: Sarah S.
Episodes: 3 (more coming soon)
Description: When Zara talks to Logan she’s immediately intrigued. The only problem? She forgot to get his number. Zara is prepared to go look for him, but will that cause damage to her friendships?

Oh okay, I can read any one stories. If someone help me a quick question with my homework. I will you or anyone in return if you would like me to read your stories or any bodies.
A combination of both. They seem to go by reader retention first, to determine which entries the judges even consider. (This means entries with the highest percentage of readers to complete all three chapters.)
Then they use a judging rubric to make decisions from among those with the highest retention.
Private messaging you. <3

No problem! It’s definitely harder for new writers, but not as hard as it would be if they only counted raw numbers. A story that had 1,000 people read the first chapter and only 10 continue on to chapter 2 would actually be in a worse spot than a story that had 50 readers altogether, but 49 of them continued on.
I imagine most stories from authors with a loyal fanbase do have good retention. BUT there have been some instances of newbies winning in the past! Good luck.
