re. why would anyone decline
Adrian, an example would be if a #1 seed picked a #5 seed, but the #5 had a different team in mind that they thought would complement their abilities better. Just because a team did well in seeding doesn't mean that they are the team that everyone wants to be paired up with.
Maybe a two goal grabber with bad traction gets picked by a team that has bad traction. If the higher seeded team used bad judgment in picking, the lower seeded team should decline.
Maybe the pick was right for the #1 team, but wrong for the #5 team. They could work with #1, but would work better with #10.
Lot's of variations.
