I think the change that will have the biggest effect on my later round strategy is that, if I understand correctly, we will not have access to the test data from the Small/Visible data sets when programming the Large/Hidden data sets.
For many problems I would solve the Small by brute force and use the data set as extra test cases for the Large. Now I will be making my own extra test cases.
