It didn't come across as dismissive, so don't worry! I'm probably the only other person who knows first-hand how thorny this issue can be. Hand-matching took the complication out of Buffy/Angel and Doctor Who/Torchwood types of things back when I ran this (before auto matching was even a thing!), but it used to take me 30 fully concentrated hours of work. I don't wish that on anyone who doesn't get the same weird OCD pleasure out of it that I did, so, as I said, I'll work with whatever you decide.
I already had my letter written, and I'm willing to bet it'll be one of the longest. So, my writer not knowing what I want was never going to be an issue. I was more worried as a writer, because not everyone leaves helpful details. But whatever. I'll figure it out. Visible requests and matching on crossovers vs fusions is already going to make this this infinitely less stressful (and more fun!) than in previous years; I'm too pleased about that to fuss too much about this one fandom.
