You could indeed verify that one alliance failed to dump noodles, or perhaps herded their noodles into the Landfill at the last moment. What you could never confirm is the nature of the putative agreement itself: which of the six teams involved actually did or did not agree to abide by TNA in the first place under the confusing pre-match conditions. Who felt pressured to do something they weren't really comfortable with? Who sent a runner to the opposing alliance before the match started to rescind TNA that didn't get the message through? etc., etc. A blacklist is just a very bad idea for trying to deal with an ill-conceived incentive system that the GDC will, we hope, straighten out shortly.
