2. If there are going to be 1 (or 2) divisions instead of 7, have multiple songs per round. Advanced players will take longer to AAA, while less experienced players get to have an easier file.
Not sure why it was necessary to mention the 8th official; the 9th official was not cumulative under any circumstance, and the 10th will not be cumulative either. Cumulative scoring is an effective scoring method when the timeframe is a bit thinner than a week.

There's not two divisions -- there's seven divisions (tentatively), and the divisions with really wide skill distribution may be divided into two flights within the division. Kayla was the one who came up with this idea way back in 2010 during FFR's downtime (and utilized it during when it came up as well), and, like you mentioned, utilized multiple songs (of slightly different difficulty) for each flight to ensure that the experiences were optimal.

Don't question her, haha; she knows what she's doing. Rest assured that anything unresolved now will be resolved before the tournament starts.
