But gaming towards good commenters only works if you share fandoms in common. With Yuletide, you might not know or be able to access their rare fandoms.

There’s enough good eggs in all corners of fandom (books, anime, f/f, xeno, etc) that you should have someone that likes the basic levels of things you do. If you’re really into writing good prompts/having a happy recip, it isn’t hard to get into their f/f live action cdrama as opposed to your fav f/f live action kdrama.

If you’re only willing to write the fandoms you came into Yuletide feeling passionate about and won’t get into new things, then you need to compromise. Your inflexibility is a choice, and one of the side effects of that may mean you will get a recip that doesn’t communicate the way you want or who doesn’t like the fandom(/your fic) as much as you do.
