Some thoughts: This was one of the more interesting fest premises I've seen, focusing on 'Disfigurement, Injury, Disability, or Illness'. Especially given the background of the Final Battle in DH, it seems there would be a lot of material to use. I've also seen quite a few requests for fics featuring illnesses and disabilities. And slash is always popular. In the end, I'm not sure why this wasn't more popular, then. Possibly it's just the sheer number of fests going on that drained people's resources. Still, it ended up with respectable numbers, and the high art ratio is quite impressive.

The ratings were very even across the board, with all ratings except for G having nearly the same percentages. The word counts were also very even, with no real bunching anywhere.

Harry's generation was the clear favorite, mainly due to the fact that Harry/Draco was the most popular pairing by a landslide. There was only one Next Gen pairing, although both of those characters (Albus Severus and Scorpius) also turned up in other Cross Gen pairings, making this one of the rare fests in which Next Gen characters were so well represented among the most popular characters.

Based in large part on the strength of their pairing, Harry and Draco ended up being the most popular characters, although they both were also paired with other characters. Also interestingly, both Harry and Draco were paired with Neville, and both with the other one's son (Draco/Albus Severus, Harry/Scorpius).
