Okay, I used the tables in the article to calculate the qualification rankings for flying disc (ultimate): https://wfdf.sport/2024/08/road-to-chengdu-qualifying-for-the-world-games-at-wuc-2024/
should be qualified by my math. are tied in ranking points, so assuming gets the host quota, I'm not sure who gets the last quota place between those two teams. Of course, none of this is official as only the federation can confirm who qualified.
That's completely ridiculous, and another reason to get rid of it from Olympics.
But, to be fair, the WDSF Breaking rankings were quite precise during Olympic Qualification. They weren't clear about how the quota would be given, but imo, they find a good way to distribute the points.
were approved as new members of the WFDF ahead of the world ultimate championships last week: https://wfdf.sport/2024/09/wfdf-congress-approves-new-national-federation-members/
There will be a little more downtime for multi-sports games fanatics like myself. The ISF has something next month, but the schedule is pretty empty until December (2024) and January (2025).
Many world ranking systems have the issue of more appearances = more points or in this case, all continental championships having the same point value regardless of talent within the continent.
I think it's only when the run is incomplete that it is accurate otherwise it is a little bit weird as you already mentioned it. Run has to be scored so why don't show it....
Meanwhile, Spanish bronze medalist in the women's T12 marathon was disqualified. Her guide got cramps a few meters before the start, she helped him up and with that let go of the tether/piece of rope that they had to hold together, leading to the DQ.
