В цьому році відбір на Чемпіонат проводиться через Інтернет. Нарешті почали надходити листи з підтвердженням реєстрації і подробицями відбору на сервері IGS.
Ті, хто реєструвався на сайті Чемпіонату, перевірте свої поштові скриньки, так як лист може попасти до спаму (так було у Артема).
Для тих, хто цікавиться цією темою, даю цитату з листа:

[ Note that all times are Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) ]
** Rules of the qualifying round
Use Japanese rules.
The time allowance is 60 minutes, followed by 30-second byo-yomi.
All games are to be played on even. (6.5 komi points)
In the qualifying round, the colours will be chosen by computer
** How to start the qualifying round games
Once connected to Pandanet please enter [StudentOza-EU] room.
(The room is appeared on 16th of November)
NOTE: Games which are played in the wrong room will not count!
Select a player from the player list and request a match.
(You are not allowed to play with the same person twice.)
If you are requested, accept it.
(Opponents list will published on 16th of November.)
The games played in the [StudentOza-EU] rooms will have automatic settings.
It will always be even games with black giving 6.5 komi to white. The color is
decided by computer during the draw. So even when the opponent suggests
another setting just accept it since it will be overruled by Pandanet anyway.
** When a game is interrupted
When a game is interrupted due to a broken network connection from one side
or the other, the side breaking the connection must immediately reconnect
and resume the game. When the connection is broken by your opponent,
please wait 5 minutes for him or her to reconnect. If the opponent does not
reconnect within 5 minutes, then the game is a win for the other player,
regardless of the reason.
If both players are disconnected, the game is stored. The stored game will be
'No game' if it does not restart within the period of the qualifying round.
In case you lose connection more than three times in a game you automatically
lose the game.
** Ranking of the qualifying round
Participants play freely at least ten games for the qualifying period.
You are not allowed to play with the same person twice. The ranking is
decided in the following way.
1. Points are obtained by the following system, and the players are ranked
in descending order of points.
points = W / N + W * 0.02
(W = number of wins, N = number of games)
Example:
you win 3 out of 6 games, you collect 3/6 + 3 * 0.02 = 0.56 points.
you win 4 out of 8 games, you collect 4/8 + 4 * 0.02 = 0.58 points.
2. When 2 players have the same points, the player with the higher number
of wins is ranked higher.
3. When 2 players have the same points and the same number of wins,
the player with higher number of SOS (sum of opponents' score) is
ranked higher.
4. When players have with the same points and the same number of wins
and the same SOS, the players are ranked equal.
