Generally agree with what people have said: this was a ton of fun. Loved the auctions, loved the energy, loved the community.
In terms of things I'd like to see different in a less WDLF-y version, I agree with the above:
- Timeline for auctions - Set deadline for fics - Some way to make sure people don't over-commit too much. A lower max bid is one possibility. A limit on number of assignments is another. Or a third would be a max bid *per writer.* Like, you can bid up to 10k (or 15k or 20k or whatever is reasonable given the timeline) all told. If you want to spend that all on one person (maybe also with the same 10k bid cap per recip), fine, but then you don't get more assignments.
Obviously that is a lot to keep track of for mods, but -- worth considering!
