I wonder about the number of samples, too.  But even if participation isn't
going down, it's certainly not going up either.  OTOH, maybe there are more
people submitting only a couple entries per year, rather than fewer people
submitting one or multiple entries each round.

I just hope people aren't losing interest.  The fairly recent Loneliness
round attracted quite a few people, so maybe those who enter are simply
being more selective as to which rounds they enter into.  For me, I had
decided to enter even before I heard the topic in the last round, but I
could certainly see some topics really appealing to me.  I was quite close
to entering the Loneliness round.
