I only see 16 fics tagged with this, and the originator of it only did 4 which is a lot less than normal. Has this challenge gone the way of the dodo?

We had two rounds of Multifandom Drabble Exchange this last year; it may be that people didn't feel quite as much need to drabble within Yuletide as a result.

Maybe? I'd written a few drabble treats in the past, but hearing people's outraged response to them on coal for the past two years I decided not to risk it unless someone specifically requested or invited ficlet treats, and I didn't see any in the letters I read through.

I think that the challenge was a lot more active back when requests only became visible near the end of the yuletide period and people saw things that inspired them with just a little bit of time. Now, since the requests are out so much earlier (and a lot of people do letters), it seems to have died down.
