I don't know know if you and/or Trofo saw my post about the possible option going forward to make it more competitive, I said we might be better of with just two Divisions, but with higher number of participant, I mean if we can have 40-50 or participant on SuperBRU, I think the division with 20-25 users and Division with 30 more users will be better and more competitive and someone failing to submit for a week will not have as much significance as it current have with less number of users per division, the only con is that the season might have to go longer than the current plan, but if that will promote engagement and not give anyone the opinion of being way below in the 3rd division and looking at how long it will take to make it to the elite group might be a sort of discouragement, that's just my opinion, I could possibly be very wrong about it.
Eventually we thought we'd grow to 20 teams per season and that we'll have 2-round competition, meaning 38 rounds per season - like most football leagues.
By gauging interest, we now feel that 1-round is the sweet spot, and that 16 per league is great as well.
We like that it's more dynamic this way, if you start a 30-team season with 5 losses it's kinda hard to keep interest for the next 20 games, in a short season it goes away quickly and you still have relegation to avoid.
We also need to have some sort of Division 3 - we need to keep growing and we need a league that's not so serious where we can put new members.
