If we calculated these correctly, here are the qualifiers for the 2014 INTERNATIONAL Olympic Committee's Winter Olympics (also known as the "Real" Olympics, since they're the ones covered by pretty much every media outlet except Chuckie's) for the Men's and Pairs events so far:

This is best read with a fixed-width font

P1 - Best place
P2 - Second-best place
P3 - Third-best place, which is thrown out
Places - total "counted" places (P1+P2)
2014 - number of Olympic berths earned


Pairs P1 P2 P3 Places 2014
--------------------------------------------------
Canada 3 4 7 3
Russia 1 6 (7) 7 3

China 5 11 (12) 16 2
Germany 2 16 18 2
Italy 10 14 24 2
USA 9 13 20 2
France 8 8 2


Men P1 P2 P3 Places 2014
--------------------------------------------------
Canada 1 5 (13) 6 3
Japan 4 6 (8) 10 3
Kazakhstan 2 3

France 9 12 21 2
USA 7 14 21 2
Spain 3 2

Czech Rep 10 (21) (31) 1
Germany 11 1
China 15 1
Uzbekistan 16 1
Russia 17 1
Sweden 18 1
Belgium 19 1
Austria 20 1
Estonia 22 1

An additional four qualifiers in pairs and six in men will be awarded, one per country, to countries that did not qualify anyone from Worlds, based on each country's best finish in that discipline at 2013 Nebelhorn Trophy.

Qualifying points for the team competition will be posted along with the Dance and Ladies qualifiers after the Ladies event concludes at Worlds. Note that the 2013 Grand Prix and Junior Grand Prix also contribute qualifying points for the team competition, so the final selection of teams will not be known until after the Grand Prix Final ends.


As for the ITHINKALTHISTORYISREAL Olympic Committee's Winter Olympics (the "Chuckielympics"), the last I heard, qualifying for the individual, pairs, and dance events will be done through the team competition qualifying "just as in gymnastics", because CHUCKIE SAID SO which means IT MUST BE RIGHT, and NEVER MIND that he CAN'T REMEMBER whether Bazarova and Larianov skated for BELLINSGUAZENIA or BELARUS, and it SEEMS that my KEYBOARD has gone CROOK on me AGAIN with its SHIFT keys STICKING.

(Chuckie - Javier Fernandez finished third; does that mean Santiago gets two entries or three?)
