Yeah, there's going to be the same amount of fic regardless of which bang it's made for, and at least on meme we're sure to be aware of it all with the FD post.

Some people just want to do a thing sometimes. Hopefully they run it well.

This. Somebody wanted to make an fpf big bang, and they did. Possibly they didn't know about the other one? There were just signups for a rare pair exchange a month or so ago and now there are sign-ups for another one; the folks organizing the second one said they had never heard of the first one. It happens.

What's the other rare pair exchange? Rarepairfest was the first one I have seen :(

The first one was shipswap, which sent assignments out a month ago for fics due the end of August.

What kind of surprised me was how different the audiences seemed to be for the two of them, judging by nominations. Rarepairfest seems to be getting a lot more slashers, for example. Also it allows threesomes, which the other didn't (the mod was worried they'd be too hard to match on).

The consensus was very different with the dc summer loving whatever thing. Or was that because it was very clear that it was in response to a perceived/baseless slight by springfling?

Shipwars always make things nastier.

I don't know that that's true. Would we really have so many new long fics year-round as we've had for the last couple of years without all these new bangs?
