Recruiting remains a problem but is hardly the root of the issue. Enthusiasm will dwindle and this league will continue to prove a revolving door as long as judgmental attitudes, paranoia and unwarranted suspiciousness, duplicitous gossip, and an entrenched attitude of cliquism continue to be on display. The occasional reminder that Cases' Ladder does not represent the exclusive outlet for word game enthusiasts might also prove helpful.
Throughout history, maligning the messenger has never proven an effective means of altering the essential truth of a message.
