I see what you're saying since it's clear from even just a quick perusal of the sign-up summary that a vast majority of fandoms will be lucky to have one other person willing to write for them; many fandoms of one sadly do not suddenly jump in popularity no matter how large the creator pool is. However, I will say that I have gotten a few offers on things in Yuletide that I never did the rest of the year because the people who only do Yuletide and ignore the rest of the exchange circuit (like I used to) did show up to offer for it (I know because half the time my writers are people I've never seen anywhere else but Yuletide). Also, I've noticed that I hit the pinch hit list far less in Yuletide than I do in most other exchanges, even allowing for some of them being tag-based, which limits you further. But yeah, it's not a universal experience and there are some fandoms that I've requested that haven't gotten written in any exchange, no matter how many people sign up or pinch hit.
