Letter misses

Share your after sign-up sadness here.

Inspired by not one but two letters that went up in the last few hours and made me curse the writers for not posting before sign-ups closed.

There was only one request for the fandom and the prompts were okay but I wouldn't have wanted them as an assignment.

Someone signed up the last minute and posted their letter for the fandom and its something I would have loved to match to!! I'm going to try to treat but if It was a 50/50 chance between great and okay I would have left the fandom in my offers >:(

That's the worst. I did that a few years ago and then ended up matching to someone that signed up at the last second in a different fandom with a worst request than the one I was trying to avoid.

I never feel this way b/c I want to finish my letter before signing up and writing it takes up a lot of time, I imagine this is why many others sign up on the last day too.

Someone please write all of their Good Place prompts and that one Beauty and the Beast/Greatest Showman fusion. Why so late, awesome letter? I WAS ROOTING FOR YOU, WE WERE ALL ROOTING FOR YOU.

First year where I've had a place holder letter and no optional details :(
