We will probably have something fresh as a season-long side competition, we're finalizing it as we speak. I think it will be tremendously fun, high risk high reward. Might keep it for the Euros though, but it will be a part of BSFL at some point for sure. Either in s04 or s05.
The fees collected from deducting the rewards of those not submitting will go towards the next season's rewards pool. We feel the punishment is hard but also fair.
The players that get disqualified don't get any rewards. That wasn't actually in this season's rules but we're inserting it retroactively for those that haven't finished the season. These rewards were freebets, but still doesn't make sense to reward the lack of effort.
Division 2 comes with 50% of the Division 1's fee. Considering the rewards, it isn't quite fair - but we'll bump the Div2 rewards a bit to compensate. 90+% of participants will at least get their money back from season rewards.
Please understand that the budget is initially calculated in USD and then transferred to BTC - so the rewards in BTC will be lower in S04 that they were in S03. The Division 1 entry fee is therefore increased if we look at it in USD terms, but we feel it is warranted. The same is for the new Division 2 fee.
