If you are on discord, you can see that the staff told everyone how new novels go. They said nothing about views. They state that the person has to reach 4K words on their story for the vetting to start; it is first come, first serve and if you publish on the weekend, it takes longer. Look at the announcements on the discord, it is stated there.
I seen many novels, mine included, accepted by the vetting process in two days (once it reached 4K words) with barely any views.
The staff started vetting new novels to stop spamming and making sure people follow the guidelines. That is why novels go without the powerstones (voting) for a couple to few days.
