This is Yuletide, everybody make a scene

I am the sock with the tear-away face
Low-effort with your gift and gone without a trace
I am the "who" when you call, "Who does an exchange without acknowledging their gift?"
I am the wanker blowing through your fics comments
I am the coalie dragging your letter at night
Filling your exchange to the brim with fright!

This is Coaltide!

If it's big on Wattpad or tumblr but not AO3, is that crowd participating in Yuletide in large numbers? The fandoms that actually get written for in large numbers are all AO3 popular fandoms.

DC was wondering that too. What are these "big on Wattpad" fandoms that are getting requested in Yuletide? All the ones I know about have a healthy presence on AO3 or ff.net as well.

Doesn't matter. According to the mods, applying the same logic as including FFN, the people who want fic for their fandom should learn how to use wattpad and stop complaining.

The FFN crowd isn't participating in large numbers, either. Hell, I'd say Tumblr and AO3 have more crossover than FFN and AO3. But for some reason, bringing up the demographic differences between FFN and AO3 ends up being controversial more often than not...
