I agree: no way of knowing. There are completed tournaments in DE and DK that are called battle road but are not tagged. There are sanctioned battle roads in DE that either did not run, have problems or are awaiting upload.
However unless you actually played in one or several of the outstanding events then your rating will not change by much when opponents ratings change. Unfortunately we are not talking about big changes to alter the 50/51st position. The German and Danish players close to the boundary may shift and change the final standings.
A ten point shift in just a single opponent's rating will alter your rating by 1/3 of a point if you played that opponent at any of the many K=32 events on the continent. We had a few of those shifts when players with multiple IDs were merged after UK nationals so its not just events that can have an impact this late in the season.
At some point in time P!P give up on the TOs uploading events and the ratings are frozen regardless of subsequent impact. I don't know when that will be.
Ok thanks. just deciding between worlds and amsterdam for YGO worlds right now. This is pretty much the deciding factor, thanks for the quick response guys.
I fully intend to go with an invite bro, worlds is my favourite part of the year! I'll probably go without an invite, its just a much tougher decision spending 700+ on a flight without one.
I don't think those two (Forlì and Genoa) ever took place, but I might be mistaken. Even if, there would have been no “ranking significant” players participating. We'll report to our OP Manager anyway.
The colours are just my arbitrary highlights for the tournaments with numerically difficult paid trips. What actually makes a trip hard to win is the number of players who might win rather than the number playing.
