Qualified Entrants to ISML 2010

Also one less split for voting in K-On, meaning more votes in nominations for Mio, who is now the only one predicted to be in 2010 that isn't so far.

Now that Amu got in via Saimoe as well, I can give my top slot to Utau without hesitation.

Curious about how Saki will do, though.

Remember that there is no longer a top spot.

More like I don't remember the new prelims rules being mentioned.

Link?

[Chocola]

Ask Juice. That's his job.

Will be up on Monday at the latest. Parents are visting.

[Chocola]

Um, you guys should revisit the first post because I made an error when reading the rules for 2010 (SINCE THERE ISN'T FUCKING ANY THANKS JUICE).

Only four characters auto-qualify to regular season? Lol, seriously? Top 16 in ISML should be proof enough of their strength...

And I don't even understand why It's those four. The first and second seed of 2008 and 2009?

[Chocola]

I lied. Check the first post again, or maybe you shouldn't.

Wow, KholdStare... epic fail.

[Demi.]

Silly that It's anything less than top 8, but whatever floats your boat.

[Chocola]

You don't know what it will be yet, since DE isn't over.

[Demi.]

I see. Was kind of accustomed to this though:

1) Nominations:
-No weighted votes.
-Minimum of slots and series enforced.

2) Preliminaries:
-Auto-entries accepted for ISML, Saimoe, and Best Moe.
-Auto-entries accepted for KSBM and China Saimoe if conditions are met.
-126 contestants, preliminaries last 4 weeks.

3) Regular Season:
-Auto-entries accepted for top 16 of ISML 2008.
-The remaining 34 will be accepted through preliminary round.
-The format will be 7 matches per 7 periods, no overtime.

4) Double Elimination:
-Mostly the same, except 3 matches per week with no overtime.
-Overtime matches will be held if there is a tie in the final championship matches.

And also, from chaosprophet's schedule post:

+Break: 10/3-12/31 (3 months - Enjoy the 1/4 remaining of your life)

I'm guessing most of that was revamed or something, 'cause it doesn't sound much alike. And was the part underlined a typo?

[Chocola]

It was an incorrect assumption from my part because the rules were not written down. There will still be 16 auto-entries into ISML 2010.

[minhtam1638]

we just don't know which 16 they'll be anymore.

[Demi.]

Because four characters already entered into DE auto-qualify(to 2010 regular season); then if you're allowing 16 total contestants to auto-qualify, won't it be everyone from DE, either way? Unless first four eliminated from DE have to enter prelims, while the top four seeds and 1-12th place in DE auto-qualify for the regular season...But that will probably make fewer than 16 contestants.

[Chocola]

Just watch the thread and you'll see.
