Also for the record, my main reasons for not wanting the UK Champs as sole decider for the Worlds are:
1: the format has been shoehorned to fit the time we have and the number of teams registered. I took over the organisation of the Champs AFTER it had been announced by Andy, i feel if the remit for the Champs was as a decider for the Worlds i would have placed more emphasis on a fairer seeding/tournament system, and also limited the number of teams... as it is i inherited something that had never been planned that way, the emphasis was just on actually getting the ball rolling in holding a National UK Champs.....
2: I know personally i'm not going to be completely focussed on Netto games because of everything else i'm going to have to do leading up to and on the day of the tourney, this obviously doesn't matter SO much if a place at the Worlds is not at stake....
So, if those 2 issues could be remedied i would have no problem in the UK Champs deciding the Worlds, i still think the results will be an important tool in making the final team selections for the Worlds...
