Third

As there was only three teams from Pool A as opposed to the four from Pool B, the second-placed team from Pool B ( Chinese Taipei) had no equivalent to play against. Thus the Taiwanese were automatically allocated third place.

gollark: It seems kind of horrifying that SIM cards do so much. This sort of thing is bound to have vulnerabilities.
gollark: I currently use caddy with php-fpm (connected over FastCGI) for that one stupid PHP application I have to run.

gollark: I can anecdotally confirm that my Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7265 or whatever the stupidly long brand name is works very well under Linux. Except for some random dropouts which were fixed when I switched NetworkManager to using `iwd` instead of `wpa_supplicant`.
