Perhaps going forward , all divisions need to be paid for before joining as nobody loves to lose money and attendance to these games should improve greatly knowing very well there is money on the line to be lost!
Not trying to defend those who fail to submit, but I can understand that it takes a while to get used to submit answers every week. Those of us who are here from the beginning got hsed to it, but plenty of us would have been disqualified if there weren't reminders few hours before the deadline. With those reminders we got used to check the questions on Monday morning and submit answers on time.
Trofo and cryptofrka said that Division 3 will never pay an entry fee and I agree with that. People need time to see if this competition is right for them and lower division is right for that. If they would be forced to pay an entry fee, a lot of them wouldn't even try.
