Qualifying starts today at 3pm for WWTBAM, with
the show beginning to be aired Sunday.
The
details are at
<<a href=http://www.abc.go.com/primetime/specials/spec_home.html> target=new>http://www.abc.go.com/primetime/specials/spec_home.html></a> with a link to the official rules. There seem to
be a few changes from August:
1) Toll Free
Number!!!!
2) Qualifying for the second round is by random
draw, rather than straight speed on qualifying. This
means that you don't have to get the fastest time on
the initial call - just fast enough. The semifinal
round will be based on speed.
These mean that -
though it is more fair for getting on, it is also more
random. Call early this week, since there will be way
more people calling in once the word gets
out.
