Judging Mistakes

Sigh.. Seems like I'm not really suitable to be some "main judge" or "sole judge". I'm too benevolent perhaps. The rules just don't seem fair: why does a walkover win (or a win where your opponent was absent) mean 5 points out of the maximum 10 points you get for a normal victory? If you win 5 games and your next opponent absents himself, doesn't that garantee you only to be able to achieve 55 points, which is just 5 points short of the minimum for a 1D to raise dan to 2D? The system simply shows so many loopholes all over.

Xingwei and I were arguing over whether Kinokuniya (Takashimaya) was bigger than Popular (Bras Basah Complex, all 4 levels of Popular). My hypothesis: Popular is bigger. Xingwei: Kinokuniya.

Any votes? Hahas
