I say this as someone who is signing up for Warfare and trying to stay present on the show for the foreseeable future:

It's the workload and timing. Writing potentially 7k+ for a single match is a ton and it's one of the harder kind of schedules to keep up to begin with, but there's a much bigger thing that I think also factors into it. If you're writing for Savage, deadline is Friday. That is the end of most people's weeks. Deadline on Tuesdays is weird for a lot of people because, although it absolutely shouldn't be the case, deadline days are where a lot of writers find themselves doing the most work. It's a double whammy.

However, the other factors at play like a thin roster and still some lingering exhaustion from Relentless definitely factor in. It's not really a single issue situation. I would also not be surprised if Halloween coming up is also cutting into site attention due to how much I know us folks dig it, but that's far more speculative.

It's weird that the workload is the issue because I also don't know if there's a way to adequately fix that. Sure, the 1 RP option helps, but I don't think it should replace the 3 RP setup. It's a tough situation.
