How to get more complete games?

In my online league, we just completed our first season, and we want more complete games by pitchers next season.

There are three (or four) settings which seem to control this: in General Strategic Tendencies the "Use of relievers," "Use of Closers," and "Pitcher Endurance" settings; and in League Totals the "Starting Pitcher Endurance" setting.

Right now, all of our General Strategic Tendencies are set to "Normal" and in League Settings, our "Starting Pitcher Endurance" is at a "1.000" setting.

Assuming that our shortage of complete games was not caused by an epidemic or poor outings by starting pitchers (and we do want a starting pitcher to be replaced during a game in which he's pitching markedly poorly), what changes should we make to our league settings, in order to see more complete games?
