AYRT - I'm just a participant so I can't really speak to the difficulty for the mods (though I'd agree that's it's gotta be ridiculously time-consuming).

And, again, I can't speak to actual numbers (though I'm sure they can be found somewhere) but the large majority of participants DO get matched. The Pinch Hits for the # of unmatched people last year was apparently around 50 people (I don't know how many participants there were total - but over a thousand). So it's really not that many who fall into that category.

Where Pinch Hitting really gets popular is as the process moves along and participants start to drop off for various reasons (there's a date you can default by) - their recipients will get sent out for Pinch Hitting.

...Not gonna lie, if that's how it's set up and [from what you've said] there are a butt load of fandoms -ante including a ton that don't get matched [whatever you say, 50 people is still a lot to not be matched and do extra legwork to get a match for] I honestly feel way more sympathy for the mods than the OP.

Granted all the "BUT!" complaining comments didn't hurt in that since...really. It sounds like the mods do a buttload of work for something they receive little benefit from, and people are complaining because they may want to cut down their workload a little? That's...just not cool.

Oh - I agree. It's got to be a HUGE time-sink for the mods. And considering that people can be pretty vicious towards them for not being able to make upwards of 2000 people happy... It seems a pretty thankless job at times as well. I may not like all the changes or decisions all the time, but I also understand that there's no making everyone happy - someone's always gonna end up feeling left-out or persecuted or what have you - and I sure as hell wouldn't want to do it myself, so I'm pretty damn appreciative that these people CARE enough to spend their time on this.
