A big yes on having the unfilled prompts made available. It'd be great to have that impetus to write more. I think having the unfilled prompts even after the exchange deadline, for future writing (gifting via AO3 and with header notes, etc.) would be great too, maybe there could even be an open post here where people could post through several weeks after the exchange to say "I filled Janedoe's prompt..." with a link?

I'm ambivalent trending toward the negative on OT4s+ just because threesomes and three ships seem such a natural match. I have a strong sense that it's diluting the specialty that makes this exchange different from the other sesa exchanges. As a writer, I also think you lose some of the particular dynamic of three when you expand the number. It's not something I really have a desire to explore, or really to read, either. If it were implemented, I'd be highly appreciative of the system [personal profile] coneyislandbaby described, with the required threesome, and other partners being optional additions that a writer could include but wouldn't be penalized for not making a part of the primary relationship.

Thanks again for a great exchange, Zvi.
