>> Exactly why I didn't want to /intrude/ by making someone ask "could you not include--" because, well, that's not my business. <<
Agreed. I've noticed that more fests are switching to opt-in as well as opt-out lists. They're batching prompts by subtopic so things like crackfic, AU, emotions, etc. If you don't want to clue your triggers then you can just pick several subtopics you like and go with those -- they usually have at least a dozen prompts each.

That's fair.
Facebook is taking a beating right now because of their poorly handled "your year in review" app, which not only appears without being requested but requires people to dig through in order to turn it off -- which has been traumatizing to several people who lost loved ones or had other tragedies.
>> I'm not going to say that ONLY having 24 prompts is "cheating"-- but I wanted a robust list to make it FEEL like a different list every time it's generated, not just the same things in new orders. Play with as many or as few of the prompts as you like. <<
Oh yeah, if you play more than one card, you definitely want as big a list as possible. I love custom lists because I've played so many fests by now that I'm getting repeats of popular prompts.

:D Oh yes, I am definitely going to make myself a card for this.
