European Qualifier Discussion - 2013 and onwards

So you are saying if we have teams A, B, C, and they are ordered by ability, and B would generally beat C, but lose to A. But if C don't have the fear against A, and in a one-off game scrape an unexpected victory they deserve to go more than B?

Well I didn't go statistical on it, but consider how taking off Cosmic, Spring Break and Nice Touch would affect Wet 'n' Wild? Now if they fuck up on a game with a team beneath them they're only moving downwards in the rankings...

Why not give Wet 'n' Wild an auto spot too, right? Well all you'll do is diminish the chances of the next best team securing the accurate ranking they deserve. You effectively give the middle-range of teams a narrower field of competition to play within, which may be good for finding the ranking between those teams, but is terrible for finding an overall ranking that deserve the Euros spots?

In the example above, you could easily end up with:

1. Cosmic
   
2. Nice Touch
   
3. Spring Break
   
4. Passed It
   
5. Kings
   6. Wet 'n' Wild
   
6. Etc
   
   

I'd argue they are easily capable of a top 3 placing, and denying them that opportunity (or any team) would be wrong, there are no definites in sport (more so in bike polo)?
