Just some feedback, from having been in charge of this the last few years.
In the end most of the teams who wanted to go (with the exception of Cosmic this year, for other reasons), have gone, regardless of the system used.
We did that whole system last year, and in the end a team that hadn't qualified, (me/Jess/Zoe) got in anyway, and that team then also got into the Worlds.
The lesson from that would be, for me, don't take it too seriously, keep it simple. You don't need some full round robin event, like 2011/12. Do it at the UK champs, and save yourself a tournament. Focus on selecting the best teams as early as possible. We all know which players are likely to be representing the UK at the top end, so come up with a system which helps them get there easily, and then let the rest fight it out for the other spots.
