You're right! I'm not the greatest writer so I know that my recipient is never going to be thrilled. But I always write something I hope they'll enjoy (except one year for Yuletide where the additional info was 'I like slash'. Three of the four character she'd listed were related and I don't do incest.).
However it's fun to play with the prompt even if you don't like it initially. Sometimes it comes out better than you'd hoped. :)
You sign up because it's fun and taking part is what counts!
Exchange fests are awesome though. Yuletide will always be my favourite but there should be a Merlin one. I would love for their to be one. (I didn't sign up for merlin_holidays because I don't like having the mods post my entry. /control freak. I can see why they do it, but I like to be the only one who can access my fic. *shruggs*)
But yes, Merlin fest! I can't imagine that it wouldn't be popular. :)
