That is exactly right. Those who are allowed to submit more than 2-3 files have proven that they can consistently make quality files. That is why guys like behan, dore, etc have 5-6 files approved by blu in this one batch... or, namely, 75%+ of the files they submitted.

The average acceptance rate is around 30-35%, and that includes the 75%+ of the top guys. The acceptance rate of the non-top guys has to be closer to 10-15%.

There is a distinct difference in consistent quality between those who we know can make quality files and those who we don't know. Over time, the more files you make and the more blu and jx can help you to improve (plus others, of course)... the better you'll get and the higher your acceptance rate will be.
