One of the main problems with writing and editing for almost *any*
tournament is that a small number of people can never accurately
gauge difficulty as well as a larger number. So if, say, the
playtesters have a blind spot in category "X," questions that are
easier than they should be get through, while questions in
category "Y" might be too hard.
