I do agree with not having really enough people for an exchange, but if we consider going up to 10 people, it may be doable? With the assumption those voting for exchanges will do it? Maybe starting with a themed one would be easier now that we're very few.. remember our porn themed challenge and how people randomly jumped in, even if they aren't regular podficcers.

A decent amount of people are replying in favor of exchanges though and it wouldn't be a terribly hard exchange to do? Themed challenges are fun though, I just think an exchange would be more interesting :D/ and we might get more variety that way..*rolls* though I admit to being wary of signing up to something that isn't a blind exchange because what if your assignment submits impossible fics to do or ones you hate? So I only fancy the exchange idea much if it's a blind one...more thought put into trying to find a way to please your assignment too...

OR IMPOSSIBLY LONG ONES. But I wouldn't want to read sthg they don't care about at all though. I think tho setting a min-max range would solve the length problem tho. I voted for probably reading your assignments' or their faves, but you're probably right. There's the possibility of impossible faves and scaring non-writers. Most exchanges are blind-ish in the end, it seems like the best way to run it .__.?

Right..what if someone only asked for 50k+ fics :( which if you honestly wanted to podfic for someone would be great but otherwise..>_>;.

To me...only having the option of podficcing three fics from a list they submitted, takes away the fun, surprise and research aspect of an exchange. Because then it just feels like a commission and they may as well read it themselves (.__.) ..it's just not appealing to me =/ it seems to eliminate all the thought you would exert to try and select something to really charm or suprise someone and it's hard to be enthusiastic about that imo.. =/

I'm all for distractions :D/

Oh yes~ you would definitely want some sort of sign up form to indicate what the person actually fancies, you could even allow the option perhaps for them just giving a listing of a sampling of their favorite fic writers perhaps to specify it even more? I just think only allowing for pre determined fics makes it a bit bland in concept ^^;;.

The idea of a secret challenge sounds really fun actually~ variety is always entertaining and you won't have issues with limited fic for the theme and multiple peeps wanting do the same three fics or some such thing ~ ;D/
