Placed = 1st, 2nd, or 3rd.

The impression I got last time this was a hot topic was that it would be a bit harsh on someone placing, say at Intermediate, in a regional comp (eg Bristol, Scotland) to expect them to have to move up to Advanced at Blackpool or Hammersmith (maybe even Britroc).

So national comps, eg Blackpool, Hammersmith, if you place in either, the suggestion is, move up to the next category, either this season or next (there's some valid debate to be had there IMHO). But place in a regional comp, it's still Ok to stay at that level in the nationals.

By the same token, place at Blackpool at Intermediate, what on earth are you doing in the Intermediates any more at Bristol?

Hope this is clearer.

PS Still think there's a question over mixed-experience couples. I'm inclining towards Andy's view, but not convinced yet.
