I find it hard to remain consistent through the entire file, there's always a spot where I get goods no matter what, which is why i'll probably be out this round too unless miracles happen. (lol longest sentence ever)
I'm not going to stop trying though, there's still plenty of time to improve.
EDIT: fdjkhgkfdxjhgbdx got 4-0-0-1 which is just below the cutoff, got a video of it too which i'll try to upload soon :P

You're probably safe with that BF. D6 seems to be getting the vast majority of their AAAs with the first 24 hours of each round, and even so, I can only spot five more people (excluding yourself) that are capable and willing to bother for the AAA.

Wow overnight dramafest. Still, its a competition so was always going to happen. My £0.02...
Sandbagging can never be proved in an online tournament like this, as long as the sandbagger doesn't want to be caught. For the same reason, posting the names of people who are 'borderline' would be stupid as it would let anyone who is sandbagging know they were being watched, thus leading them to not try hard in order to disguise themselves. Just check people out yourselves who are in your division and do your own sleuthing if you wish to keep tabs on the better players.
The people organizing this are only human. Sorting close to 500 people into 6 groups of people who are fairly level in skill, using hundreds of data points per person, of which many aren't even directly comparable, in the space of a few days... Well, can you expect anybody to do that without overlooking a few peoples places? I'm impressed it was done so well to be honest, and it must've taken a ton of time! Credit to the staff where it's due for that!
As such, in the first few rounds I think it's totally expected that some changes will happen, since it's early days and there's plenty of time for people who do belong in the changed group to get up to speed. Zaks 3g is a good example of this
That said, I think there's a point which when reached should see everyone's positions frozen. After this round well over half the people from each division will be gone (except D5 lol), and moving someone up a division when it's only the better players in the higher division left would be unfair in my opinion, once this round is over. In 3 weeks people can skillboost a lot, and as some people have said it would be extremely unfair to punish people who might have put a lot of time and effort into becoming the best in their division.
Thankfully though, the tournament operators are doing a fine job, and the only people moving are ones who they've said they were unsure about in the first place.
tl;dr - The organizers are doing a really good job, stop giving them a hard time and go AAA your song.
...probably missed a ton of stuff. Spending 3 hours writing long posts on a touch screen tablet whilst at work on a busy day =/= ideal
