Everything got 8a+ in the day, that's why we had graded lists.
culloden is down to 8a! in the new recent developments. don't know anyone who's done it to propose the downgrade?!
I thought Zeke was still 8b?

Interesting that Neil Mawson did MA yesterday and reckoned it to be one of the easier 8a+'s on the crag.
Surely time to man-up guys? MA was only ever mid-rank 8a+ at max. About the same as Four Door?
The old rule should still stand that if there is any doubt at all about the grade down it goes
where are the skeleton's in the Peak? Well for a start, ask yourself if the 8b/8a+ boundary is in the right place at present, 'cos with only eight 8b's and with thirty five 8a+’s you might well wonder if a different system is being used. You might redress the balance a tad by upping Boot Boys, Superfly and Albatrossity Direct to 8b, to name but three of the proper ‘ard 8a+’s. And by the way these figures assumes that Revelations weighs in at 8b which is more that a bit controversial to say the least!
