IDPA Headquarters would like to address the questions that have arisen here on the IDPA Forum as to how the Point system worked for this years Nationals Championship.
First, we would like to apologize for a major oversight in part of our preparations. We neglected to actually post the date that the entry selection would start. This led some competitors to believe that they had more time than they did to send in their applications. We recognize this error and rest assured we will not repeat this in the future. We are constantly trying to make the process faster and easier for our competitors (like the new online squading feature) and while there will be other bumps in the road, we will endeavor to eliminate or mitigate them in the future.
The timeline for this match (and anticipated baseline for future matches) is as follows:
Entries that were not selected were placed on a waiting list. As spots open up, a replacement will be randomly drawn from the wait list. In the future we will keep the entries that came in before the selection date separate from the late entries. Entries will be drawn first from the on-time list, then from the late list.
As we go forward our Nationals selection will continue to evolve. Our new membership database and website will give us many more
tools and abilities to make the Nationals Selection process fair and equitable. Thank you for your time and patience while we complete this overhaul of the sport.
Also to answer the question as to stage count, there will be 16 stages in the match. the round count should fall between 225 and 275. I would recommend bringing at least 300.
