Nobody will throw matches in the elimination rounds. That would just be silly. I think people are way too competitive to do that. They want too much to win to throw away their own chances.

I think it would help your argument if you give a few practical reasons as to why someone would turn down a higher seeded alliance. I mostly agree with you on that but it really would help if you state some cases. As it is now, the only case you put fourth was highly improbable. Just a suggestion.
