It could be an interesting exercise if we didn't alert BT to this issue to see how long it takes to be noticed and fixed.
Does TomD write this game?
If so, at least someone from BT who seems to actually care, should know, just by following these threads.
TomD does care, and he was instrumental on eliminating the repeat STC issue that BUG was exploiting, but I don't think he follows each and every thread here. He certainly follows the incorrect question thread as well as most sports ones, but he might not come across this one.
If he does, it'll get fixed quickly. If not....
Would a writer of this game want to report this?
If lower participation numbers could bring this game to an early demise thereby allowing it to be replaced by a previously superior product, it raises a question.
Were I a sports loving game writer with a love of the rich tradition of hockey goonery, would I want to write a 30 question current events game every week? As boring as it is to play, could writing it be any less painful?
Further, knowing that content has driven away the core element of the player base (as I imagine both writers and players easily suspected) what is the easiest way to expedite the departure of the rest?
Easy. Technical issues further reducing the element of competition that bear no reflection upon the quality of the writer's content; something like a loss of rankings should do the trick. Now all I have to do is "miss" a couple of threads discussing the problem thereby not being able to notify anyone of the issue...
If I were forced to write this unacceptable and unasked for game and had any hope of improving things, that would be an action that I might consider...
