So far everything is going according to plan for german fencing. Hopefully they won't mess it up in the remaining competitions.

"According to plan" is not sufficient. 

As of today it will be a very tough battle with Italy in men's sabre in Poland in women's foil and both teams could end up without a quota.

Best option for a team quota might be men's foil, but here indeed tomorrow will be crucial.

Ok so Kharlan qualified at the OG via special quota at least (it was suggested by our favorite Thomas Bach)

Women's foil seems a bit more predictable, this is what I would go with for tomorrow:

 

1.   2.   3.   4.   5.   6.   7.   8.  

 

Which would give us this Olympic ranking before the final 3 World Cup events.

 

1.   296 pts - World 1

2.   260 pts - World 2

3.   224 pts - World 3

4.   216 pts - World 4

---

5.   194 pts - America

6.   170 pts - Asia

7.   146 pts - Europe

8.   144 pts 

9.   130 pts

10.   126 pts

11.   123 pts

12.   122 pts

13.   116 pts

14.   107 pts

15.   100 pts - Africa

16.   97 pts

17.   72 pts

I think you don't understand what the plan is ...

They try to become so bad that their funding will be completely cut.

Always knew that he was a great guy. He is an olympic fencing champion after all.

So Bach is like the Pope now. He is giving his blessings and apperently quotas on his desire.  I want a volleyball quota too mister President.
