In short, I'm personally not opposed to changes in qualification (it's a separate matter what the actual changes would be). And to limit the scope, we could have the changes only apply to the NAC (so it wouldn't have to affect the EC).
It seems odd to have different groups of people qualified for different Continental Qualifiers (you could for instance end up with a situation where the winner of the NAC wasn't qualified for the EC that year e.g. won NAC in June, EC in October but only made top 50% in NAC LCQ rather than 25% in NAC required under EC rules).
It'd be better to just have alternative rules for qualification in different regions to fir the need as in Asia/Oz

That's a valid point, but that situation already exists in the case of the Australian Championships (hypothetically the winner of the Aussie Champs might not be qualified for the NAC/EC).Squidalot wrote: It seems odd to have different groups of people qualified for different Continental Qualifiers (you could for instance end up with a situation where the winner of the NAC wasn't qualified for the EC that year e.g. won NAC in June, EC in October but only made top 50% in NAC LCQ rather than 25% in NAC required under EC rules).

If having alternate qualification systems is too complicated and it's more important to streamline things (even if that does not serve the interests of particular groups/regions), then the Australian system should be made consistent with the NAC/EC system.
But if allowing alternate qualifications to fit the needs of particular regions is a valuable goal, then not only should the Aussie system continue to persist but different regions (such as the NAC in this case) should also be allowed to make reasonable accommodations to fit their specific needs.

I think in Europe we are doing fine with the current system, actually I have seen many times the adverse effect that qualifying (and qualifying being not easy) made someone go to the championship. Also we don´t want to have Day1 getting out of hand with player numbers. Current numbers (from Poland) are really the maximum you can manage without going insane. Additionally we have seen a rise in small local tournaments "to get people qualified", which is a good thing and the national qualifier events are still premium events which draw multinational crowds, also a good thing.
