In Response To: Madison - Thank you..yes indeed :) (Chuck Bower)

I personally think it has to be money, or you're asking for trouble. If the only incentive is higher placing or ABT points, sometime someone is going to say "I don't care", forfeiting the match, at the same time that an equally placed competitor will have to play, and will lose to, an opponent who is trying to win. And then there'll be a lot of hollerin'.
