Re: Four IPHs left

+1 and releasing requests earlier would only mean more potential treats, not less PHs

It's not going to result in any more gifts for the last pinch hit(s).

Probably won’t result in any less either so

Not a reason to do a thing.

It might not increase the number of gifts for last pinch hits (would anything?), but it could up the quality. I tend to write treats and then put them to the side until after the deadline. I've had fics written as treats become post-deadline pinch hits.

This isn't to say that there aren't good PHs whipped up in a few hours after deadline, but there are definitely some late fills that are less polished or less tailored to the recip. Given the time constraints, that's not surprising.
