@Veronika
Who made this draw?

@Mozz

the draw is always made by the host, now it's @Ana Raquel

It could be just me, but the distribution of pot 5 looks to be imbalanced between the semis. The vast majority of pot 5 members that tend toward traditional pot 5 taste are in semi 1 (Calypso, Doire, NBS, Orangualia). In semi 2 there's just....me.

@Mozz

There are four pot 5 members in your semi:
Begonia
Insomnea
Konthena
Rahasia-Diati

And in semi 1 there are four pot 5 members too:
Calypso
Doire
GD Strenci
New Bander State
+ Orangualia , if you count a PQ

I think overall everything is fine.

Hi! I added the allocation information on the spreadsheet later but I random.orged were divided 4-4 (4-3 before Begonia joined) + the PQ in semi 1. I did not take "traditional taste" into account because that would demand a lot of time and possibly even misconceptions given that I'm not a pot 5 myself and might not know what traditional pot 5 taste sounds like.

And other than the semifinalists, I at least made a special draw for pot 1 PQs so that they didn't end up all voting for one semi (there are two pot 1 PQs in the semi with fewer pot 1 nations, for example). The other three PQs are from different pots so they were allocated randomly.
