filed as a pro last year- do i have to this year?

It would probably be close but since you have no other source of income ( not even a small one) they will prbly hound your ass to file as a pro.

don't they generally make it difficult for people to file as a pro? (someone had to take them to court just to be able to do so which set the precedent)
They also say play has to be full time and constant.
Has anyone here filed as a pro and then switched back?
Im not trying to get away with anything I shouldnt be able to but it really doesnt seem like i would qualify as a pro this year under their own terms?
