Why? I really don't pay attention to people in Yuletide and I'm curious now.

Any who request "any."

Any is fine if the fandom only has a few nominated characters, especially if they actually give additional details. Any with a blank signup and 20 nominated characters sucks so much. Just make a fucking decision.

No. "Any" is fine when they actually *want* any. That's it. That's the condition. It doesn't matter how many nominated characters the fandoms has or if the sign up is blank.

"Any" is not fine when:
- They use it because the character they want is not nominated.
- They DNW characters / combinations of characters that have been nominated.
- They make clear that they actually want A, B and E, and couldn't care less for C and D.

Every time I matched to a sign-up requesting "any", it was one of those cases. Every. Single. Time. (Including this year. So I feel particularly frustrated right now.)
