So what are they for?

You don"t have to play them if you don"t want to

No need to throw the toys out the pram Jon. Whether I play them or not is irrelevant. I"m trying to establish what these ranking points count towards if they don"t count toward the National Rankings.

There are no specialist rankings, which is what I believe Jon was saying :)

So no points are awarded for the specialist events? I believed it was half points. I also tried this on the night of the announcement but I guess there was a lot going on that night.

For the record I wasn"t criticising APAT, or Jon, I was just trying to establish what the specialist series points (if any) counted towards.

"You don"t have to play them if you don"t want to" was a direct reply "So what are they for?"

If you want to play them - that"s what they"re for

If you don"t, they aren"t for anything - but what difference does it make

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

--- End quote ---


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.
