I'm not yet clear on exactly how these penalties will be imposed, but it is possible to penalize a single team. While each team in an alliance gets the same score, any individual team's score could be reduced by the penalty amount. We are supposed to be working WITH our alliance partners, but we cannot control their actions. And it would be unfortunate for the entire alliance to be penalized for the ungracious actions of a single team.
