And it's up and they've eliminated the 2 nominations thing. Good.
They make vague talk about tightening eligibility rules and limiting number of nominations. Less good. Vague is never good.
Hmmm. The best thing I've seen about this whole mess, is a post over at an anonmeme, that makes the point, that the biggest problem with this mess probably is that the problem that the Yuletide mods are trying to address (tag bloat on AO3 due to overwhelming number of nominated fandoms) is not viewed as a problem by the participants, but as a feature - Yuletide is cool because of the overwhelming number of fandoms. To which I basically agree - I understand that it is a big, technical challenge for the people running the exchange, but I do adore those long lists of fandoms and moments of "wauv, somebody want that?"
