Uh how did you read that into what I said???? Did I get personal somewhere or is this the level of "discussion" that I should expect? I certainly don't think that I deserve to make a final (in anything). All I said was that if you are brave enough to go up then you shouldn't have to then be humiliated if you go out in the next round of the level below!

But I do think that if someone has worked really hard all year, and they have the chance to come first in Intermediate, why should they be forced to dance up and not make a final? This suggestion is great for those who won't make more than a round in Adv. But lets say we end up with quarter/semi/final in Adv. The people who make the semi but not the final probably would make the Int final - if they had been allowed to dance it. So why shouldn't they? By this logic noone who is any good would ever be allowed to win Int - because they should always be forced up to not the final in Adv. You might be able to convince yourself that if you go out in a semi in Adv you are "better" than all the Ints - but you still don't go home with a trophy.
