If your goal was to win the tournament, and loosing a match made it easier, I think that would certainly qualify as a grey area. It would be especially grey if your alliances agreed it was in their best interest to lose the match too.
I'm not sure if you read my first post on this thread or not, but essentially our motivation for loosing the match would be to keep a very inconsistent robot very high in the seedlings in order to break up and to weaken elimination alliances.
