marmolita Well, okay, it's only hard during some time periods, and right now that mostly means it's the stress of watching the number of posted works slowly, slowly count up as the days tick down until the posting deadline. As of right now, there are 19/65 works posted, and 3 more in draft state. This part is less work than matching was, but definitely more worry.
So far I've only had one default. Last year there were 20 participants and one default, and some of the participants who asked for extensions took right up until the last possible second to post their work and almost gave me a heart attack, so hopefully that won't happen this time. Nobody's contacted me for an extension so far. I'm going to be out of town when the deadline hits so I'm going to need to borrow my mom's computer to send out pinch hits or else try to do it on my phone, which will be a pain, but <i>hopefully</i> there won't be too many of them.
In other news, since I'm the mod I've gotten sneak peeks of some of the art that's being submitted and it's GREAT, I'm super excited! Ahhh why did I set this up for new year's, now I have to WAIT.
