We are actually in the process of reconstructing the system so that it does become a bit more manageable. The lateness in the previous batch was absolutely inexcusable, and we're all aware of that.

I personally am not fond of a SAP reset as a simfile artist being that it was relatively difficult for me to find time to chart, and I don't want my cap to be dropped at all. Others might not share the same sentiments as I do, though.

Another potential issue with this: the simfile artists who frequently get their files accepted with high SAPs are being choked down due to a reset, which means acceptance rates on the first few batches could be substantially lower to the point where we might not support file releases. Looking at this current acceptance list here, we had 52 files accepted and eligible for SAP. Out of those 52 files, 42 of them come from artists who have (or NOW have) enough SAP to submit four files.

If for any reason FFR wants to revert back to six files per weekly release (and I really hope we don't shift this way), we would need at least 24 files to sustain a month's worth of releases. Resetting people's SAP effectively reduces the files by half (potentially more with our 5-cap artists) in a batch period.

Either way, there is a lot to be weighed in.
