Newbie yuletide madness question

The wiki article says yuletide madness consists of a list of unfulfilled requests gone live Dec 23.

That means a list of recips who as of Dec 23 haven't received anything?

I think that must be very old. Back in the day, requests weren't revealed until very late, rather than being revealed after IPHs are claimed, as is the practice now. So I think that's what "a list of unfulfilled requests" refers to?

However, I'm honestly not positive that's what's being referred to. Could you link the wiki article?

In any case, no, at no point is a list of giftless participants ever published, unless that's how you want to think about the pinch hits that are advertised. There's no treatless list either, if that's what you were thinking of.

DA

uhhh what the hell I have never in my life seen this wiki before?? Holy shit its Madness page was last updated in 2011 ffs, get an archaeologist in here 'cause this ancient knowledge must be preserved! LMAO. Anyway, going by the editing history, and the fact that there are only 17 pages, this looks like someone's abandoned personal project and I reeeeally hope you haven't been using it as a primary troubleshooting guide for your first go at Yuletide. I would recommend you check the official Yuletide FAQ instead of rando dead wikis.
