The winner will be determined based on a scoring system.
Each score is determined using the Bayesian Weighted Rating (BWR) formula

As a reviewer, you have the chance to win a $50 prize! Each review you complete equals one entry into our raffle—so the more reviews you write, the greater your chances of winning.

You must read each story in its entirety before submitting a review.
Reviews containing harmful or discriminatory content will not be accepted.
