Rhet, the way the rules work you lose out on a set of potential additional points. I wouldn't give you a win for a no show, for example, so you'd only get points for dropping. You miss out on potential win and KO points.

In your case you'd go into the top division I guess which is potentially what you meant but it's not usually going to be good for you to get the no show as it'll limit your points scoring in a competitive division

it matters less to me, because honestly, im just here to drop verses and have fun 

but one option is just to recombine verses. like, if two people dropped and were no-showed, just match them up and merge the verses into one thread. 

i understand the dual tiered system complicates that, but maybe its a valid option when available 

That's a good idea & would work for this round as it's a unified theme...though wouldn't always.

Alice has communicated via Endeeze that she is without internet (which happens for her, I know this to be the case) so she should drop within the next couple of days once she's back on.

Basically, due to no rush for votes I will still accept verses that are dropped but people won't get the +1 for dropping on time. But will avoid the -3 for a no show.

I will flex the points system to create incentives to drop earlier going forward.
