Notes:
- The countries receive spots in 'Open' division and 'others' (column 'M/G/W/J/S'). 'Others' include divisions Master, Grandmaster, Senior Grandmaster, Women and Junior. The countries are free to allocate their spots within these 5 divisions. Only the amount of 'Open' is fixed. If a number appears in 'M/G/W/J/S', it means that the country has not yet allocated the spots to the divisions. Once that's done, the number will appear in the according column.
- Untaken or unpaid spots will be redistributed in Phase II, starting by May 15th. Please see the roadmap for details.
- The above table is connected to the player management database. It shows the current state of allocation. Thus, the table may change by the time. (see documents for initial allocation)
