Comments

[(Anonymous)]

Yeeeah that does seem a little off to me. Did they actually give a reason why they were changing the rules?

OP

[(Anonymous)]

The rule has since been rescinded, but there's also been thinly-veiled threats about "trying other things" next year, so... >:\

The reason is all very convoluted -- but, from what I've understood, basically the AO3 archive can't handle too many fandoms and it's too much job for the moderators to do stuff manually.

Re: OP

[erinptah]

It's not about what the AO3 archive can handle, it's that finding matches for everyone is getting harder. If there are fewer fandoms available, you're less likely to get signups only requesting things nobody else has offered, or only offering things nobody else has requested.

It looks like they've switched to having people make more offers/requests instead, which also decreases the likelihood of signups with zero overlap.
