Well Ethiopia only had 5718 selectees so I think it did not get limited for some reason this year. Nearly 800k entries in 2013, so that is surprising.
 
he legality of what is happening is questionable - general impression is that no per country limit should exist on the selection stage, even though 7% limit legally applies on visa issuance stage. Interesting to mention, only some of those 6 countries are more or less close to reaching the visa issuance limit, others are well under it. Iran was the only country for which the 7% visa limit was actually reached in DV-2013,[19] but no limit was set for Iran on selection stage.

There might be no special cut off for nepal because this can also happen this year !!!
 
Ghana had 1,056,032 entries and no CN above 32000 (except 2, according to ceac), I think there was limit for ghana too

For 2013 ghana wasn't maxed up. As it shows on the dv bulletin. So this year there won't be a special cut of for ghana as simon said above their cns went as high as the rest of AF.

Well, we don't really know what criteria to have a special cut off.
The following is for sure will have special cut off:

1. If during selection, the countries used CDF function then it will put into Special Cut Off.
2. If logistically the CP cannot cope with the interviews scheduled.

The following condition might put countries into special cut off.

1. Any country that slow down the region progress.
2. Certain country become bottleneck because of AP cases.

But in DV11, Bangladesh was put into special cut off just for one month in April 2011. So, I believe this happen because of bottleneck issue. I think this year might happen for either Iran or Nepal if their density is really high within certain range in the rank #.

You make a point with the cp because iran maybe escaped a special cut off since they process them in 3 different ambassies !
