Do the live side events carry ranking points ?

The Specialist Series on Sundays don"t carry ranking points
The World Championship Side Events in August do though.

The side-events were originally brought in last season to give people a reason to stay, and those who were already staying something to do, but they have become quite popular and I think it is time that the awarding of points to them was reviewed. The online side-events receive points, as do the live ones held at DTD but not those held elsewhere, which seems pretty inequitable.

Not that you have a vested interest in this John!!!
It would seem to make sense though!

It would be nice to make the rankings more of an all-round measure - and be more balanced between online and live; but to make the side events ranking events would mean that they"d have to be moved so that they didn"t clash with the end of the main event. Which there isn"t really any space for - and would defeat the purpose of why they were created.

Don"t see why - the side events at DTD all clash with the main event.
