I understand changing as needs arise... what I don't get is changing the divsions AFTER the tournament is listed with divisional breakouts on dgscene.

At least as far as your points are concerned, your "primary division" in the eyes of the PDGA is MA55. Any and all points you earn in any amateur division will count toward qualifying you in the MA55 division. In some tournaments it might be advantageous for a player to finish middle of the pack in MA1/MA2 instead of beating just one or two people in MA55. It's possible to game the system by looking at which divisions have more players and signing up for that division. As a 55 year old, ALL points you earn get applied to your MA55 points total.
