That makes sense. Honestly, I have no idea how work intensive it is to organize/open a collection! Much appreciate all the work that went on behind the scenes!

If they're on the 8th page of filters, that is a function of posting date, which has nothing to do with how long the anon period is.

Yes, those are two separate issues: reveals came the scheduled week after the submit date, and I realized that I could change the (sad
and sorry) number of hits after a mod on another exchange posted a reminder to change the posting date once that collection opened. Only affects bigger fandoms, I think, but it made a huge difference!

I'm also saying that with a known small number of participants, a lengthy wait time on both seemed excessive. (Although maybe I'm just impatient!)

And thanks! :D
