Also, JEEZ, how many teams were there. We've an indication of at least three more teams. Not just teams, VICTORS! Which means there were at least five other teams we didn't see competing in the doubles (the two additional having been against JNPR and SSSN naturally); will they go the way of CMSN's opponents in the first round and just be totally unnamed? Will we learn the individual's names but never find out who their teams are? I'm argh right now.

By my calculations there should have been 32 teams at the beginning of the tournament. This would mean that 8 teams made it to the finals.
