Re: 9th seed decline

I know I've seen it at least once, where a 8-13 seed declined, planning to make an alliance captain spot, and got hung out to dry. I don't remember where it was though.

I also know my team was seeded 11th or so one year, and thought we'd make elims as a captain, but were not selected at all (we weren't that good) and only 2 selections within the top 8 happened, leaving us as the first backup bot, at 11th seed.
