Nice event, and congratulations to all!
Although the 1-2 finalists seem to be in a class of their own from the results, the disambiguation between 4-11 or so isn't so clear. (SOS, SOSOS, etc. are often luck of the draw things.) There are some cycles:
Burzo > Debarre
but
Burzo < Kuin < Rattanasetyut < Debarre
And of course the Japanese rep, Hirata, suffered an upset against Ofstad early on.
