I hope the betpanda contest continues until 20 rounds LOL
Meme, I understand you.
Let's allow such players to be eaten by the blinds in the future. It's fair and standard practice in all tournaments.
Well, basically, we should drop this rule. Even though it's an unwritten rule.
The choice is ultimately yours.

So you want me to lower the ante but increase the blinds? (I guess with the same intervals). I see some merit in this suggestion, lets see. I have to give it enough thought. Consider these two scenarios though,
1.) One guy showed up in a timely manner and played and got busted in 11th place (10 places paid).
2.) This guy forgot to show up and just remained sitout for the whole time, but managed to win the 10th place prize.
Taking advantage of the allowed time bank is a skill, and no one is against that. You are allowed to tank and sit out during ICM pressure but there has to be a difference between getting a prize for nothing (not even showing up) and playing within the allowed time bank.
Not to mention it only slows down the game drastically as everyone will wait for the sitout player to get eaten up by blinds and ante (which you don’t want to increase).
