Subject: Sr Ladies WQ numbers

How did they come up with 11 WQ spots for Sr ladies? I thought formula was 5 for the first 20 and 1 for every 10 after that. Wouldn't that only give them 7 qualifiers?

[> Yes they used the incorrect formula. Senior men’s also incorrect. Maybe they will recognize that boy today? The ladies they may need to contact their teacher privately. -- So sad, 09:48:56 11/27/21 Sat (170.250.46.42.hwccustomers.com/170.250.46.42)

[> In that particular competition, the formula is 7 for the first 20 and 1 for each additional 5 or part of 5 after that. So a total of 11 is correct. -- No name, 00:40:46 11/28/21 Sun (NoHost/12.200.180.15)

[> [> [> Same. They took away extra spots when they created U22. Only gents get the extras -- *, 02:03:22 11/28/21 Sun (d173-183-68-239.bchsia.telus.net/173.183.68.239)

[> [> [> [> Correct, Sr. Ladies is like all the others 5 for first 20, then 1 for every 10. Sr. men is the only group calculated as a double age group now. -- oh boy, 06:46:08 11/28/21 Sun (c-73-149-216-35.hsd1.nh.comcast.net/73.149.216.35)

[> [> [> [> [> So then it looks like they applied sr men WQ formula to sr ladies, and vice versa. Yikes!!! -- No name, 16:48:32 11/28/21 Sun (108-249-108-131.lightspeed.sndgca.sbcglobal.net/108.249.108.131)

[> [> [> [> [> [> Yikes, that DID happen! Just picked up on that! All six of the dancers in the men should have been announced as WQ. Easier to correct than telling four excited women they didn't accually WQ though. -- Oops!, 10:28:06 11/29/21 Mon (mta-98-29-135-211.columbus.rr.com/98.29.135.211)

[> This is unacceptable. Why are there so many issues with Irish dancing tabulations? It seems every major or nationals there’s some fiasco with a result. -- Shameful, 21:07:18 11/28/21 Sun (NoHost/154.6.28.109)

You would think there would be checks and balances in place to verify results BEFORE announcing them. Especially results with WORLD QUALIFYING implications. How can you mess up a dead east world qualifying formula. Whoever made this mistake should be held accountable and forbidden from being involved in tabulations again - whether it be a committee member or Quickfeis as a whole.

[> [> You are just shooting from the hip. Literal verbiage from the Worlds syllabus: -- Inside, 10:16:26 11/29/21 Mon (mta-98-29-135-211.columbus.rr.com/98.29.135.211)

"11. The number of qualifiers from the respective competitions at a Regional or National Oireachtas shall be as
follows: -
(a) In the case of competition 1 the number of qualifiers shall be seven (7) where the number of competitors
is twenty or less plus one additional qualifier for each five, or part of five in excess of the first twenty
eligible competitors.
(b) In the case of all other solo age groups the number of qualifiers shall be five (5) where the number of
competitors is twenty or less plus one additional qualifier for each ten, or part of ten in excess of the first
twenty eligible competitors."

Competition 1 is the Men's Senior Group. The Senior Women fall under "All other age groups."
