I just want to see a lot of new fic ;-)

Which would be my ulterior motive, really. *grin*

mcshep_match is my current model for a ficathon I'd like to emulate, or at least cherry-pick for good ideas, because every single story (at least the ones I've read) were long and enjoyable and very well-written, and the ficathon overall seemed to be run well and a good experience for everyone. They did it competitively, though, and I don't think I want to do that, even though in that case it seemed to go very smoothly with no hard feelings between winners and losers. But I still would rather keep the competitive element out of it. Beyond that, though, I really *like* the idea of having groups of writers doing angst and teamfic and action and so forth.
