Did anyone else read Freakonomics? They had a story about a daycare where moms weren't picking up their kids on time. So in order to curtail late pickups, the daycare imposed a small fine. But that actually increased the number of late pickups, because rather than feeling punished, the moms interpreted the fine as an absolution of guilt- pay a little bit of money, and you're forgiven for your negligence.
It's the same thing here, with the punishment for tournament bailing spelled out in black and white, I think people are less afraid to do it.
Stagfish? More like Stagnant.
