St. Louis taught me that leaving each other's stacks alone shouldn't take any agreements. It's just plain good strategy for Qualifying Rounds. If your opponents need to be convinced to maximize their potential score, then they haven't studied the mechanics of the game and don't deserve to get a 'stacks up'-score.
These pre-match agreements need to end. Aside from the ethics of the situation, there are so many ways for them to go wrong (intentionally or otherwise). In the best case, a team or teams get points they didn't earn. In the worst case, relationships between teams are damaged, and we all begin to lose faith in one another.
