Re: Registration 2013

Not yet.

We're still under last year's veteran return rate by about 3%.
88% vs 91% last year

Resurrected veterans are at about 9.5% so far vs last year's final 13.6%, so that's not it either.

P.S.
I don't think this is unusual activity. I just hadn't noticed that the arc of registration is greater each year primarily due to the previous year's rookies signing up fast rather than the slower, steady pace of newly organizing rookie teams.
It means the arc is very predictable.
