I'm not sure how this helps? Will the Category story hover in undisplayed limbo until the Display date? If not, then gaming the system with a mess of posts will get you longer prominence in the top spot. Mine posted this morning and I'm now fifth down in the list (not counting the Test), much more likely to go unseen.
Yes, it will be the same as on the front page (Quick Reads tab in this case) where your story is third on the list. A story doesn't appear there until its display date, and those must be at least 24 hours apart for the same author. It hovers in "undisplayed limbo" until then, which means people can read, vote and comment on it, but it's only accessible from the author's profile or a direct link.
Even without this weird hiccup that you've identified (thank you, btw), stories don't last long in the top spot or on the front page. Not much we can do about that, I'm afraid.
