I feel like this would put teams in a lose-lose situation. If a team calls you out for lying (whether you did or not), then you're chances are ruined. And by the same token, calling out a team puts you(r team) at risk for being called "un-GP".
Also, malicious teams would ruin the system, because not everyone is a okay with losing (even if its to the better-prepared opponent), and although GP operates under the ideal of adjusting the average by bringing the floor up (instead of the top down), some teams still don't get that.
