It seems to me that the majority of PFS scenarios are challenging for a group of 4, about right for a group of 5, and a cakewalk for a group of 6-7 characters. A good half the time when we have a big group the encounters don't two full rounds which is just boring. Groups of 6-7 who fall between tiers can generally play up with very little risk.
I'd like to see some encounters in scenarios scale so when there are 6-7 players there is a little more of a challenge. I'm not thinking of huge changes, just some simple things like "There is one guard for each PC in the party" or "If there are more than 5 people in the party add an additional guard."
This would make the scenarios a little more fair for the smaller groups and keep the challenge level up for the higher level groups. This is exactly the sort of scaling I do personally for my home group on the fly but I don't feel I can do in PFS.
