Idea for getting more easier files in game

[dore]

There've been a couple threads bemoaning the lack of easy files and discussing reasons why etc etc. I thought of a simple way to encourage submissions of easier stuff. Allow easy files to be submitted in excess of a simartist's submission cap.

Obviously, there are details to be considered, and since I'm not in charge of that sort of thing, I don't have a completely formulated plan to execute this suggestion, but some ideas:

-Allow a fixed number (say, 2) of easy submissions per batch
-Allow easy submissions equaling a percentage of the artist's usual cap (50% seems fair)
-Allow unlimited submissions of easy files (seems like a bad idea)

Some considerations that would need considering (har har):

-What difficulty level constitutes "easy" and where should it cut off
-How to handle an artist going over their limit because a file is borderline and they think it should count as easy but it is judged to be harder than that limit (maybe allow it once and then start assessing penalties to submission limits to the next batch)
-Raising judging standards for easy files (so that judges don't go "lol boring" or "lol it's easy so it must be ok")
-Gradually adding [Light] versions of popular files

Just some thoughts. Maybe it'll go somewhere
