"Best practices"
I'm concerned about what appears to be one team (or at best, a few teams') opinions being presented here as canonical rules without attribution. For example, the first item on the list says to write 50% more puzzles than you intend to include in the event. We did this for neither BAPHL 6 nor BAPHL 9, and those events turned out okay. I absolutely do not want to discourage people from stating what they thought was helpful/successful, but I don't like the idea of whoever gets here first speaking for everyone who's constructed. --DanKatz (talk) 20:54, 25 July 2014 (PDT)
