Final Results of Qualifications

Hey all,

We are currently making the final adjustments from the final ranking of qualifications to make a 100% safe announcement.

After that, we will publish the 8 Groups

That will probably take 1 more hour or so.

Thanks all.

I'm back!

Before we put the whole list of the final rankings, there are a few things we'd like to say:

1) Today TRC Qualifications servers collapsed (hopefully it was in the last day), but the Live Rankings were not affected. The database with all times is still under our possession, although at this moment the current links for them is unavailable. We're working hard to solve the problem and make it available as soon as possible, so don't worry, nothing was lost

2) In the last day we noticed times from 3 players that were very crazy, in the track TRC Rite of Passage. They are:

vodr albandu17 (alban)
acid2 howler.06 (howler)
dore2cuo mateo09 (matiasz)

At this moment, we don't know exactly what caused this, if there was a crazy bug in the servers before they collapse or if those times were made using cuts. So, we are requesting all 4 replays of these players to make sure none of them cut, as a precaution. Captains of Vodr, dore2cuo and Acid2 will receive a PM of mine soon.

This also doesn't affect the final results of Qualifications, because we used the Final Rankings based on a previous version we had, 100% safe, before the problems. The list is posted below.

3) As we received a lower number of registration than expected (only 30), we had to make some adjustements in the rules. To explain:

As it's impossible to form 8 groups with 4 teams each, Group A and Group B (the groups that have the 2 best qualified teams) will have only 3 members. So, as a consequence, every team in that group will have 1 "bye" week. This is how the Groups drawing was made (extracted from the rules topic):

1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8
16-15-14-13-12-11-10- 9
17-18-19-20-21-22-23-24
32-31-30-29-28-27-26-25

(note teams 31 and 32 scratched, simply because they don't exist)

Also, we had to make another change in the Fun Table, because there also weren't be enough teams to fill the Fun Table. So now, the system for Groups Stage will be the following:

1st + 2nd places of each group will form the 1/8 Elite Table Playoffs
3rd place of each group will form 1/4 Fun Table Playoffs (1/8 completely skipped for Fun Table - the maps used this week will be the same as Elite Table, what will make, in the end, the Semifinals Map Pack of the Elite Table the Final Pack for Fun Table)
4th place of each group is ELIMINATED FROM TRC

***** ALL TEAM CAPTAINS WILL BE INFORMED OF THESE CHANGES IN THE RULES BY PM! *****
