Group Drawing Changes

Australia decided to send a team of players after the group drawing was completed. This was great news for Australian players of FIFA, StarCraft II, and Counter-Strike, however, this caused a problem for us where to add them in the group. For FIFA and StarCraft II, El Salvador was not able to make it to the event this year, so Australian players in those two games replaced the El Salvador player's spot. For Counter-Strike, WCG Committee decided to do one draw with groups A through H. Group D was drawn and Australian player was added to that group.
