Need to split this by season
We need to split this by season. --Karlos 21:21, 23 May 2006 (CDT)
 * This sure will be one large article when season 3 and the finals will also be there. Yet I'm not sure if it really is too long to be placed on one page.
 * So if maybe more of you out there think this should be split I suggest moving the respective part of the content on aricles:
 * Guild Wars Factions Championship/Qualifying Season 1
 * Guild Wars Factions Championship/Qualifying Season 2
 * Guild Wars Factions Championship/Qualifying Season 3
 * Guild Wars Factions Championship/GWFC Point standing
 * Guild Wars Factions Championship/Finals
 * Karlos, is this what you had in mind? --MRA 16:12, 24 May 2006 (CDT)


 * Just split by full season. i.e. from the very first day of competitions and ladders to the the final day of the final game. If that cycle is a year then mark it by year, if it spans more than one year then do like basketball (97-98 season), if it's less than a year then maybe by season (Fall 2005). --Karlos 23:33, 27 May 2006 (CDT)


 * As far as I understand there will be a championship series for each chapter. With the GWFC for Factions and Guild Wars World Championship 2006 in the role of the Guild Wars Prophecies Championship, I believe we already have this "split by full season" you suggested. Given some spare time, I will start making this more noticeable. --MRA 13:54, 2 June 2006 (CDT)

GWFC matchups
I think they are wrong shouldnt it be: Because 3 and 4 are tied it would force an exibition matchoff between EW and iB before those matches to determine seed 3 and 4. Additional info: http://www.guild-hall.net/forum/showthread.php?t=42102 --Draygo Korvan (Yap) 11:55, 17 July 2006 (CDT)
 * 3 seed vs 6 seed winner faces 2 seed
 * 4 seed vs 5 seed winner faces 1 seed


 * If you take a look at Guild Wars World Championship you will see that the fixtures in the last finals have been:


 * quarter-final 1: seed 5 vs. seed 6
 * quarter-final 2: seed 3 vs. seed 4


 * semi-final 1: seed 1 vs. winner of quarter-final 1
 * semi-final 2: seed 2 vs. winner of quarter-final 2


 * finale: winners of the semi-finals


 * Which does make perfect sense, since the highest seeded guild should face the "easier" opponent. I used to think that I have seen this schedule on www.guildwars.com, but I haven't been able to find the page now. Further, there has been a tie-breaker for the 5th slot, but I haven't seen any announcement for an 3rd/4th seed tie-breaker. So I believe that the fixtures will be the same as last time. But of course I might be wrong. --MRA 16:04, 17 July 2006 (CDT)
 * I edited the article to my comment actually, and as per the guildwars.com article I was correct in my assertion. There will be an exhibition match between EW and IB to determine 3rd and 4th seed. --Draygo Korvan (Yap) 21:01, 17 July 2006 (CDT)
