every league I've played with the last place fine has been way better.
otherwise you always get a few ppl who quit and it's lame.
Seems like something that could be difficult to collect on. The best league I was ever in had $10/week to the highest scoring team to keep people interested. The carrot can be more powerful than the stick, but of course if your team is in shambles you're probably not going to be contending for the $10 at the end of the season. You never know, though. The worst teams get the top guys off the waiver wire and can be dangerous at the end of the season even if their record is bad. Then again, that won't be happening here with the FAAB system. So perhaps makes it more important to find some incentive to keep teams competing. One thing I do like is to have the final wild card decided by highest point total rather than record.
