The only problem possible is : already qualified players helping one of their former allies in the next qualification match (ie : someone win in EA with the support of another player then help him in MA).
This was the issue that motivated my original comment. It seems like this would be a fairly easy thing to spot if someone did it, but what could be done? No way to prove it really, and what would the correction be anyway? As Twan said, the Dom community is a generally sporting bunch ('cept for the pathetic scumbag Norfleet) and i expect it'll be ok as long as this is either explicitly allowed or outlawed.

One other thought on organization, since this intended to be competitive ,it might be better to host on a fixed time schedule (ie M,T,W at 8 pm) to aviod stale turns. I'm pretty sure i've never played a long net game without a stale turn, and it usually happens because i didn't notice a game QH'ed unusually quickly. ( i sure miss God's Eye).

Will you allow players to join one qualifiing game instead of the full three? I'd like to play, but i'm over commited on the Dom3 already.(OT- the juiced economy in your Orania game was a bad plan, i don't finish turns anymore, i just stop) I suppose i could join all three, concentrate on whichever one went best and tank the other two, but that seems a bit cheesy.

And finally, thanks for both doing this and for all your hosting Dr P!
