The interesting thing is that there was a higher monetary incentive to win the regional. If you go back thru the thread, you might find a post by a member of team 1492, with a link to the video of the offer. Something like $1000 payment towards registration for Champs for the teams on the winning alliance. I don't really remember.
If you read my post at the top of this page, you'll see that we decided that the no defense strategy was indeed a more viable strategy to win the match, than playing defense.
The monetary offer is what sparked the idea to not play defense. It is not what really made us do it, as far as I can tell.
