Ow, my draw 21st in regular and 4th in REJU is rather unlucky for an entry I'd rather hoped would scrape through to the final. Oh well, it happens.
NQ votes from Japan:
5/10 isn't the worst thing ever but those top 5 were a cut above the rest, so I'm sad to only get two of those through (China in particular was my clear favourite here). Still, congrats to all the qualifiers; I suppose I'll hope for some better luck in SF2!
