Re: Play to win

Going into competition on Saturday (at AZ) we were in a position where losing our two remaining matches would have been advantageous. Instead of getting picked by a lower alliance on the first round of picking, we would have been picked by a higher alliance on the second round of picking. But we decided that playing to lose was stupid so we decided to win and we did and it was the best match we have played yet. And we ended up getting picked by the 4th alliance and winning over the higher alliance(s) and we made it to the final finals.
