file What is a Continental Championship Qualifier?

04 Oct 2016 15:38 #78577 by MarcusVitel
I know Ankha and I had this discussion before by email, but now that I have recovered a bit from being very agitated about it I would like to get a better understanding of the qualifier process for a continental championship.

Question: What is the definition of a Continental Championship Qualifier? Where in the (tournament) rules is this specified?

Thanks

Qualifiers are mentioned in two places :
Also, "Continental Qualifier" is an event type when creating a new event.

To sum up:
Continental qualifiers allow players to attend a non-open continental championship.
The same way, national qualifiers allow players to attend a non-open national championship.

Understood. To quote 9.8: "Qualifiers are handled just like regular tournaments for sanctioning, prize support, etc., and are open to all players" So it is basically a regular tournament called "Qualifier". Excellent. Thanks

Well, a tournament is a tournament is a tournament... ;)


To me, the biggest difference with Continental Championship Qualifier's is the qualification.

Whereas in a regular tournament only the winner qualifies, in Continental Championship Qualifier everyone who score a GW, and the organizer, qualify.

Absolutely right, so why would you ever hold a tournament that is not a Qualifier?

Qualification for 1GW in Continental Qualifier is a pleasant difference.
But what is the difference between usual Constructed and National Qualifier?
