Season 6 pre-qualifiers halfway thru

While we are waiting for the results of Season 5 Consolation Cup Semifinals, let's have a look how are doing the candidates for next season. The pre-qualifiers have been in play since Friday, Jan 21 and end today (Monday, Jan, 24). Due to the delay in getting reports, I have now scores for the two first days. This means that for many players today's update is the last bell - they have only today to improve their scores.

Rules

Short recap of Rules:

players "walk alone"
3 best scores from the 4 days of pre-qualifiers are summed up
bonuses for @poliac Leagues and #poprzeczka competition have been applied
top 8 will play in Round 1 of Champions League qualifiers (this coming Friday and Sunday); they will be paired against seeded players (based on #MAcFiT Ranking)
next 16 will compete in Round 1 of Consolation Cup qualifiers

Standings after two days of pre-qualifiers

Bonuses already applied

players in red won't be classified unless they post at least one report

Who's In, who's Out

@dirkzett is already In, as he had gotten a Wild Card based on his @Poliac League One position.

@ziabutt3836 and @matthew1 have amassed so high scores that with 99% certainty I can say they have qualified to Champions League eliminations.

Next there's a pack of a dozen or so players who will compete for the remaining 6 slots. @ykretz.sports @sandraa1 and @racibo are very close. Although I'd advise taking things into their own hands (feet!) so they don't have to look back.

Then it get's really tight - @kwsnomzys @martusamak @axel-mccornstack @kiel91 @romualdd and @mushanov are all within 7 points. There will be a fierce battle here and I think only the last day will show who's done it.

There's a group of players who a bit behind, but if they do decent step counts in the two remaining days, they still have chances to get into Champions League. These are: @dontcare89 @notak @stefannikolov and @krakonos

The remaining players highlighted in yellow - @markohodge, @liftslikealady @griega @stewie.wieno @deepresearch and @zireal86 have almost secured their place in Consolation Cup.

The remaining players (red background) have not posted a single report yet. They need at least one to be classified (bonus doesn't count for players who are inactive and don't post a single report). So:

@giulius
@rozioo
@fredkese
@soluce07
@kpreddy
@wallee
@guurry123
-- if you are reading this, make sure you post at least one report for Yesterday or Today.

"What if"

The following is a "what if" analysis, to explain how the qualification process works.
If the pre-qualifiers ended after two days, this is how the pairs in Round 1 of eliminations would look like:

Champions League - Round 1 of Eliminations

Players mentioned first got to Round 1 based on their #MAcFiT Ranking and are seeded. Players from pre-qualifiers come in reverse order of their scores (ie. the best player from pre-qualifiers faces the last seeded player, the second best gets the one but last seeded etc).

P1: (R15) @sk1920 vs @axel-mccornstack (PQ8)
P2: (R16) @pjansen vs @martusamak (PQ7)
P3: (R17) @davidesimoncini vs @kwsnomzys (PQ6)
P4: (R18) @asia-pl vs @racibo (PQ5)
P5: (R19) @davidthompson57 vs @sandraa1 (PQ4)
P6: (R20) @homesteadlt vs @ykretz.sports (PQ3)
P7: (R21) @zimnaherbata vs @matthew1 (PQ2)
P8: (R22) @milabogomila vs @ziabutt3836 (PQ1)

The winners will advance to Round 2 of Champions League eliminations and the losers will be transferred to Round 2 of Consolation Cup eliminations.

Consolation Cup - Round 1 of Eliminations

Note: Players in red have been SKIPPED, as all need to submit at least one report over the pre-qualifiers (4 days). Empty slots will be filled by "bye's"

P1: (PQ9) @kiel91 vs bye
P2: (PQ10) @romualdd vs bye
P3: (PQ11) @mushanov vs bye
P4: (PQ12) @dontcare89 vs @zireal86 (PQ25)
P5: (PQ13) @notak vs @deepresearch (PQ24)
P6: (PQ14) @stefannikolov vs @stewie.wieno (PQ23)
P7: (PQ15) @krakonos vs @griega (PQ19)
P8: (PQ16) @markhodge vs @liftslikealady (PQ18)

The "bye's" are pretty important. They do not only give promotion to the next Round, but also secure 2 ranking points, which may be handy in the future.
