More specific matches are indeed nicer, when they work! In the particular fandoms I was looking at when I posted that remark on Saturday, the groups seemed to be posing an obstacle to matching.
All but four people did get successfully matched, in the end, so I was probably needlessly concerned.
>"I only saw the exchange advertised in two places..."
I saw only one, myself. Before nominations opened, I gave the mod a list of DW & LJ communities that I thought would be good for promoting this event; she didn't choose to use it. ~shrug~
And even up above in this thread, one of the people on my f-list -- right here! -- says that she didn't hear about the event until I made this particular post. (I'd mentioned it before, but not enough for her to notice.)
