I think the fragmented nature of modern fandom doesn't help; a shared universe like the Round feels a lot more at home in a centralised forum or USENET group than spread over multiple blogs or fic archives. The problem with an LJ community is you're at the mercy of the mod; and even if they're willing, if a simple rec community like calufrax is having trouble finding reccers, what chance is there for anything more elaborate?

Maybe I should have added I want it all back, the way that it was! to my wishlist as well :-)
