Thank you :-)

I hear you on the guilt for not finishing, and I think you're right: the guilt is worse when it's a gift exchange, and other participants are more likely to add to the guilt.

And you've perfectly summed up one of the points I was trying to get at: accessibility makes the fests better for all participants :-D

I'm glad to hear you had such good mods in the challenges you dropped out of, people like them make fandom a better environment.
