Yuletide numbers

[carbonel]

I knew the numbers had varied (and probably decreased) over the years I've been doing Yuletide, but I'd never seen them together. Here are the numbers (as provided by the yuletide_admin mods) from 2014 to present. The change is more significant than I'd thought before I started. (Corrections provided by primeideal and morbane.)

2023: 1,390
2022: 1,369
2021: 1,401
2020: 1,482
2019: 1,454
2018: 1,533
2017: 1,579
2016: 1,721
2015: 1,857
2014: 1,895

According to Yuletide 2017 Ao3 profile, there were 1554 signups.

The mods said about last year that the numbers on the profile weren't accurate bc of things like deleted accounts, so that number may not be accurate fyi!

Thanks, will add!

As marquisguyun points out, that number isn't quite accurate. Checking the pinch hit spreadsheet for that year, I think the sign-up number was 1579.
