I'm in as well. The most they could do with these 'regional shenanigans' is blocking people from getting access to the game (be it access from downloading the game, or a physical region block in the game itself). To think some people are even hypothesizing it to be some 'sting operation'; if they really wanted to get rid of foreign players they would have done it ages ago, you don't need elaborate stuff like this to smoke them out (because they have the means and we're all violating the T&C either way).

And in the case you do win a spot, all they would do is send you an invitation. You can just sit on your ticket and watch how things go if you're really paranoid.

That said, I have seen game developers that do go all out to get rid of foreign players (hi, S〇EGA Japan) as much as they can, but there are always workarounds and I haven't seen any of them involving account bans. Do let me know if there are any that did ban accounts because it would be nice for future reference.
