Happy to wait for more announcements but feel free to answer if you want.
Which events will be assigned ranking points? medals etc.?
Will the National Leagues be the same format as last season?
Will there be online qualifiers for all the Amateur Championships and Professional League events?
--- End quote ---
Full ranking points (18) to multi day events and half ranking points to side events in Amateur Championship. All events will award medals.
Full Ranking points (18) in Professional League and medals.
9 Ranking points available in Specialist Series, but will not award medals.
Full Ranking points in Online main events and half in Omaha Championships. Both will award medals.
National League will run in same format, but we"ll have two 10 match leagues as opposed to 1 20 match league. Prize structure to be finalised as we don"t have an 8 seat GUKPT budget for this, but we do have around £5k to allocate.
Qualifiers - yes, same as S3 - Monday $20, Tuesday $10, Weds $5 rebuy + $50 Pro League satellite. Thursday clickfest at 9pm. Same structures on all events.

Is specialist series a separate ranking league or do they go towards National Amateur rankings?
so 4 sets of rankings?
National rankings (live)
National rankings (online)
Professional league
National online league x 3 - twice

As can be seen from the unedited quote above I understood there to be half ranking points available hence my confusion.
I was asking what the points were for if they didn"t count towards the national ranking.

Yes we originally were going to run a Specialist Series rankings, but it became clear players would start to seek entry into those events as opposed to them being largely for the players who get knocked out on Saturday and fancy another event on Sunday. We"re going to keep the onus on fun in them. Apologies for any confusion I have caused.
SirPercival:
Thanks for the clarification Des. No need to apologise.

Good idea imo. Also avoids disgruntlement from people who go fairly deep in the ME and might have ended up with less points than someone they knocked out early on Day 1.
