I've been in a few contests, and the common con is no shows after they commit to the team. I don't understand the concept of joining a team, and then screwen them by disapearing. Just don't join in the first place, if you have a commitment problem. No one seems to have a solution to the problem, but post counts seem to help. However, I didn't have many posts, and I participated vs some regulars on here that disapeared.
