I went back and looked at all my past fics in Yuletide collections. I have 18, going back to 2008. In that time I've gotten more 10 comments on a fic during the anon period four times: in 2008, 2009, 2016, and 2018. My median number of comments received during the anon period is 4, and there doesn't seem to be any clear pattern of decrease over time.

OTOH, with one day to go, I have exactly one comment on my fic this year (from my recip), which has never happened to me in an exchange before.

How many people requested/offered the fandom and what is the +/-10 for the total # existing fics for that fandom (e.g if theres 5 fics say 0, if theres 11 say 10, if theres 21 say 20, etc)

I can't really parse your code, but the fandom has several hundred works on AO3.

DA

Nobody wants to hear it but...your fic may be bad? Or the fandom avoids anon, or you need to redate?

Actually I think I figured it out. This is only the second time I've ever written porn for Yuletide, and the other time I only got 2 comments by the end of the anon period. I'm going to blame this on Yuletide's demographic. (Shhhh, if you disagree, don't tell me. XD)

That could be it! (It doesn’t explain why the rest of the fandom hasn’t shown up though. On vacation maybe???)
