Yeah, I completely missed your report so please feel free to delete this. It looks, from the timestamps, that we picked it up around the same time. My bot is starting to have a few issues due to approaching it not really being maintained in 12 years so I was working on better matching design marks after I was looking at some interesting Joe ones. I'm still trying to fix my Japanese one but I think it needs a complete redo along with the EU ones. One day perhaps its way down on my todo list
