Re: Should teams be allowed to dencline a replay?

I believe that in eliminations, An alliance should be able to decline a replay on a field fault that affected only to them.

During Finals 2 at Waterford, a strand of red lights fell down in front of the red goal in the last 6 seconds, resulting in an automatic replay due to a field fault. The Red alliance was leading by 60 points, and since the lights were dangling in front of their own goal, it should of been entirely in their right to say "No, we don't want a replay".

They actually won the replay, and the match after, winning the competition.
