- The number of winning entries and losing entries that get revealed later in public suggests that this number should be at least 50.

- The number of judging rounds, as the FAQ says, is at least 3 and possibly more. If each judging round eliminates about a half of entries, we should expect at least 10 submissions per each winning entries. I personally think the actual elimination rate can be as low as 1--20% at the end, but at least first few rounds should be easy so I think this is a good minimum guess: 1--200.

- The current number of individual judges is just enough for the three-digit number of submissions. It has a striking resemblance with typical academic conferences with typical acceptance rate, by the way! If there were thousands of submissions (like today's AI conferences...) there ought to be much more judges, and more importantly, more levels of judges so that each judge can do just enough work throughout the entire process. So this establishes the maximum guess: 1,000.

- My best guess is simply a geometric mean of two extrema.

> cultural division and xenophobia perpetuate in East Asia

By the way, I recently have seen multiple claims from Japanese Twitter users that Korea would have been better keeping Chinese characters (Hanja) in use. If this is a cultural division and xenophobia we are talking about, I will gladly take it---why on earth do they have any saying in Korea's choice of scripts? The "sinosphere" is an illusion, the fact that CJKV countries have or had shared the same set of characters is just a fun fact and not a cultural mandate or anything else like that.

To elaborate: it should be plain obvious that not every Emoji proposal can be accepted even though all of them are correctly filed, as there would be too many Emojis there then. So there has to be some threshold, and that threshold is mostly stipulated by vendors' willingness to process new Emoji characters for designing fonts and updating softwares in time.
