Replacing character matching with relationship matching would probably make me quit, as relationship matching is the reason I haven't joined any of the other exchanges I've looked into.

(I also dislike freeform tags, but I don't think I dislike them enough to quit over them)

Terrible things to have happen:

1. Get an untherius-like for a writer and receiving a revolting, horrible fic I'd never have thought to DNW.
2. fucking up badly enough I end up in the center of a huge wankstorm
3. somehow managing to hit a DNW. Doesn't matter how many times I reread the DNW list and my fic, I am always paranoid about this.

I would love both, but I sincerely think that there's a 0% change of Yuletide ever implementing freeform matching. And while relationship matching is probably slightly more likely in the long run, I still doubt it's going to happen anytime soon.

+1 to all of this
