A shortage of bullets

Last night, for just the sixth time ever, I had a funny funny money MTT-R NLHE. In other words, I "made the money", but still had a net loss. The root cause was a shortage of bullets. There were fewer players than normal, and therefore fewer rebuys and fewer add ons. All this added up to a much smaller prize pool, with the inevitable result that all the prizes were smaller. One reason there were fewer players was that I started playing poker later than I usually do; I'll try to correct that tonight.
