I don't think this counts for this thread, but relatedly - I never did the math for Worm because it's huge. There's so much fic on SB/SV and it seems very much against the spirit of Yuletide.

But I got curious and ran the numbers now.

782 (AO3) + 212 (FFN) + 116 (FFN crossovers) = 1110

That's much closer than I thought it would be! It might have been 'technically' eligible last year or the years preceding, wow.

I haven't read Ward, but I suppose someone could argue Ward in if they wanted to. (Too late now, but in the future.)
