Wow. Hearing about this makes me really happy I'm not in the BSG fandom (I just started watching it 2 weeks ago...only four more episodes to go and I'm all caught up!). Because, honestly? In my head I ship everyone with everyone. Seriously. Like, every time character interact I'm like "hmmm, it would be interesting to read fic about them." Which speaks to the complexity of all the characters and their interactions. It makes me sad that people are miltant

There was a secret here a few months ago that neatly summed up my problem with BSG fandom -- it showed a typical week's fic output, and 99% of the roughly 30 stories was either Kara/Lee or Adama/Roslin. Like, there are DOZENS of characters with fully fleshed personalities in this damn show...why do people ignore them? I mean, I know there are communities for Sharon/Helo, Baltar/Six, Gaeta/Anybody, but they make just a drop in the bucket compared to the fan attention paid to the "core four" or whatever. It's strange.

And here I was being sad I hadn't watched the show earlier, because I would have enjoyed so many different pairings in fic. I guess I mainly just missed out on a lot of frustration.

(Indeed, Adama/Roslin and Kara/Lee are two of the ships I'd be LEAST interested in reading about, because while I really like them both, I'm totally content to just see where they go in canon, at least for now).

I think a part of it is that it honestly isn't as large a fandom as it seems, so the pool of writers is smaller.

Second, to be cynical, writing the big two garners a lot more feedback. Though I tend to think it's more that people write what they think people want to read--not for the feedback so much as to provide what people like. If that makes sense.
