* Quartet qualified for International Competition by either
  attaining the minimum score (2736/1824 points, or 76.0%), or by
  having the highest score in their District, with an average
  score of at least 65%. (NOTE: The "highest" quartet score is
  recognized regardless of which District contest the quartet actually
  competes in.)
# Quartet qualified for International but withdrawn.
@ Quartet who might fill a wild card slot for International
  (unofficial; the official list will be determined by the SJJC.
   The maximum number of quartets in the contest is 45 plus 3 affiliates.
   For this ranking, the number of projected wild card slots is just 
   the maximum number (45) minus the projected number of qualified 
   quartets.)
+ Quartet that qualified according to Article V.7(4) as an out-of
  District quartet, competing for points only, outscoring all other 
  quartets in its home district.
& Quartet that might qualify as their District representative if they are
  not out-scored by another quartet from its home District that is competing
  out-of District in another (upcoming) prelims contest. 
$ Quartet that did not compete in an Int'l Prelims contest, but in, for example,
  a Division-level only contest, and are not eligible for International, even 
  if they have a qualifying score.
^ Quartet competing in an Affiliate contest. Refer to official Society announcements
  for affiliate quartets invited to compete in the BHS International contests. 


==========================================================================
NOTE: For qualifying quartets and for quartets that might be considered for
wild card slots, ties that occur between a 2-judge panel score and a 3-judge
panel score (where the percent average is calculated to a "tie" rounded to 
the nearest 0.1%) are broken by calculating the average score to the nearest
0.001%, by multiplying the 2-judge panel score by 1.5 and then dividing by 36.

For example:
                                      2-Judge   3-Judge
                                      Per Cat   Per Cat    NORM.
    QUARTET NAME             DIS       TOTAL     TOTAL     PCT.
    ---------------------    ---       -----     -----     -----
    Speakeasy               *SWD        1925               80.2%
    Four Aces               *MAD                  2887     80.2%

Four Aces' 2887 divided by 36 = 80.1944%, and is rounded to 80.194%.

Speakeasy's 1925 * 1.5 = 2887.5 for the equivalent 3-judge panel score.
Divide 2887.5 by 36 and round to the nearest 0.001: 80.208%.

Thus the virtual tie between these quartets is broken for this ranking.
