I think there should be some sort of time limit/framework to qualified teams confirming their places set in advance - otherwise travel and planning becomes too difficult for next best teams to be able to manage logistics.
Yes i agree it is called the 'UK Champs'.
I know you want to plan further ahead. but realistically no one will commit until they know where they stand in the rankings. I think anyone that really really wanted to go to paris and wildcard last year would have done anything in their power to go. Anything like check the list of teams that registered. All the info was there and available. I don't think we should get too het up about teams not taking their Wild Card spot. Nobody really missed out, they just weren't committed enough to keep themselves informed. I doubt that would happen again to anyone committed enough to email the organizers.
