I totally agree with your analysis of our LHF situation Paulo. The idea is to promote one ticket per day for 24 days. That approach should give us enough time to clean and enhance some tickets. We only need to prepare one per day :-) I have a few candidates in mind already. If 8 persons provide 3 each we have our set of tickets. That seems reasonable, no?
I also think that it is fine if the level of difficulty is different as long as we mention it clearly and that we provide some clear approach to solve the problem. Different people might be interested in different levels of difficulties.
