Re: Is it okay to "throw" a match that will be replayed?

It's not worth the risk. Not all field faults result in a replay, it's dependant on if the head referee (and the FTA to an extent) feels like the replay affected the outcome of the match. This is important, because their interpretation could very well be different than yours, especially since they don't have to make the decision on the spot (i.e. during the match).

If your robot can't survive one more match, you will not make it through eliminations in Aerial Assault. Play it to win, because it's not worth the risk, especially to your alliance partners.

Not sure what team you're on, but if we're in a match together I'd object it.
