good question. i'd certainly think about it more than not really at all - i think much like yuletide. i probably wasn't going to sign up last year at all but then blake didn't qualify and i decided i definitely wouldn't - which is a silly distinction to make as i might very well not have been assigned that fandom, which would mean it would be as if it hadn't been nominated.
with remix....
i like it very much as a format, and it's forced me to write some of my best non-shippy (and shippy) doctor who. which is really good. but now i dont really want to write doctor who (i am still watching it - we watched large swathes of trial of a time lord the other day, although admittedly i rejected the opportunity to watch the end of kinda. my priorities - i ask you. mysterious planet is pretty good, though. and brian blessed is in the next one - mind... something) but... i dont feel that compelled to write it, and if i was writing it i'd just think 'i wish i was writing my blake's 7 romance novel instead'. which is a bit sad.
but we sort of knew that, and you imply something similar in your comment. so - would i do it if my blake fic were elligble, and there was a possibility that i could write a blake fic? i dont know. i would quite like there to be blake remixes, and i am sort of thinking of suggesting that we run one, but now isn't a particularly good time in that i have loads of ideas for fics, including a fic that i started writing for a challenge - and another one that i am writing for unconventionalcourtship, which i didn't think was going to run this year, and hadn't planned for. and then people wanted it, and i felt like i had to play because that was basically all i was going to contribute as a moderator ;) and actually the fic is flowing really easily, and it's sort of a thing i was thinking of writing anyway. my two options were a) massive pre-series plotty thing or b) disposable sex business, and probably for better rather than worse i chose a, even though it meant... i wasn't writing my other-challenge fake relationship story ;) (from once romance novel to another, let's face it.)
i know remix would be in a month or so, once this was done - but maybe i am challenged out. for the moment. and you dont know who else will sign up, do you? and they might be assigned to other fandoms...
as for doctor who, based on the list of people who signed up for who_remix... i suspect i would probably end up with someone i have already remixed (as i did this time).
in summary: it would be a more difficult choice, and depending on the circumstances i might end up feeling like i had to sign up if blake was nominated, but probably still no.
