I suggest you cut down the max point limits on contests, probably the
easiest way. The problem is that until a while back, nobody had won by
points for ages, and all the contests doubled or quadrupled their
scoring, so points are plentiful nowadays. Forcing them to halve their
limits again would be one of the easiest solutions.
