I was actually thinking something similar - do qualifiers for each series until we get the 128, whilst balancing it so we're getting a cross-section.

Let's say there are 100 battles, proportionally we'd probably have 3 x Series 1 fights, 6 from Series 2, 12 from Series 3-4 and 7, 10 from Series 5-6, 5 from Series 8-9, and so on. I'd probably look at a way to make sure we have the exact proportions, otherwise the best Series 1-2 fights have no chances of making it through as even an unremarkable Carbide or Apollo fight will get votes over them. That was the bracket itself is a celebration. Is that what you mean?
