it might do, but it might also make people try harder, but maybe there should be a handycap put on anyone who keeps wining.

Yeah, thats not a bad idea..

If you come 1st you start of next month with -150
If you come 2nd you start of next month with -100
If you come 3rd you start of next month with -50

Or something along those lines..

Trouble is though.. we'll keep coming up with more and more "patches" to make it better.. and it will just end up incredibly complicated and counter-productive.

Possibly, but it should be ok, atleast for a while.

Erm..

Why've I gone down in points overnight?

I thought it reset every round/month.. not everyday?

They can still get 2nd or 3rd.

As this progresses I may up it to 4th and 5th places too.

I will not be handicapping winners, if someone keeps winning it's for a reason, why would I handicap an asset, then they will stop entering.
