Is some opinion that, last season, once you were down, you were out, and that many ceased to play after they got down around zero.
This is the kind of thing I'm most concerned about changing. If you perceive that as a problem, I'd like to know, and also would like to hear the opinions/suggestions of the other players so that we can remedy this before launching season III.
I will strongly resist any changes to format after the season starts unless are some compelling reasons to do so, and it makes a lot of sense to do it in the middle of the season.
