Assignments Controversy

YAGKYAS mods assign fics using a random method with no regards to participants' preferences regarding pairings and characters they would like to write for. The biggest problem participants had/have was when Brad/Nate fans and writers were forced to write Brad/Ray fics (and vice versa) - something they found really hard at times. This resulted in some (a lot?) frustration on the participants' part. The mods were contacted at some point with questions (who?) about the possibility of changing the way assignments are handled.
