2. Group drawings for each game will depend on the alphabetical order of each country.
3. Group drawings for each country are done by the ranking the player received at the national finals.
4. Redraw occurs when 2 players from the same country are in the same group.
5. Redraw may not occur when the situation of paragraph 4 occurs during the end of the drawings.
6. The following is how the rules will go if a player is absent after the group drawings because of personal reasons.
- 1) Absentees will receive an LOSS OF ABSENCE for all matches.
- 2) Although the total number of players in the group has a great difference among other groups due to the player's absence, that group will still be played as schedule.
- 3) If an opponent is absent for games that depend on points, frags, or records such as CS:CZ, UT2k4, NFSU, Halo and PGR2, his opponents will receive only a win result.
7. No objections/complaints about the group drawings are acceptable.
