I'm thinking that Ricky is taking it easy on us at the beginning of this. He may be making it easier for all skill levels too, and thinking about the time of year it is. Ppl may not have lots of time to devote to it in the next 2 months.
But I agree...hope it can become a bit more....IDK ... challenging?
That may happen anyway as we progress and try to integrate something new with what's come before.
