Qualified teams

The 12 qualified teams are:

* Senegal replaced Algeria (disqualified)

gollark: I've seen a bunch of libraries in many, many languages for terminal manipulation.
gollark: I guess it will work fast enough, unless you want to do... anything at all... fast.
gollark: Yes, but process execution is more horribly inefficient then lua.
gollark: Calling a new process for *every* terminal position/color change, that is.
gollark: Isn't that going to be horrendously inefficient?
