How about this as an idea. Pay $20 for every win throughout the season. EVERY WIN. It would take $140 per week (in a 14 team league) x 13 weeks.
This would take $1,820 away from other league winnings but that $ would be dispersed to the winningest teams anyway. I think that $20 is still an incentive to start your best lineup !
thoughts ?

Announcements wouldn't be a bad idea but everyone playing here I bet knows how giving up can affect their league outcome. The quitters don't care and it is sad. I'm proof that "everyone" doesn't know certain things when it comes to the rules/league outcome...ie. I THINK there MIGHT be a prize for best league, but I don't know.
If there were an overall league prize, might be a good point to bring up mid-season to leaguemates, via league MB or league wide e-mail, as a reminder not to quit. Kinda a nice way to call your leaguemate(s) out that might have quit or thought about quitting. [/QUOTE]Yeah I like the overall league prize idea Jules. I know there isn't one in this contest but I see your point that others may think there is like that in other contests.
I know we have a prize each week for the high scorer in the contest. How about giving a prize each week to the team in each league that gets the high score each week?? Even if your team is out of contention for a league title or playoff birth early you could still get lucky a couple of weeks and win some $$$.
