I disagree and do not accept the rational that last years game is even in the same league strategically as this years game. Pure defense means that a team will act just as Raul describes. Keep the other alliance from scoring. This would require them not to score as they also would be pretty busy attempting to meet their defensive goal. 2 minutes goes by pretty darn fast and as a result a fury of activity at the end would determine which team wins, but with a pretty low score for both parties involved. The defensive alliance has won a moral victory, the winning team has 3 times a low score and as a result is not all that happy. Winning against a defensive alliance is not a rewarding experience, Losing while playing defensively is not that hard to swallow, because they had not intended on scoring much anyways. The Losers end up being the winners, because they were successful in showing the one characteristic that the lucky picking teams will most likely be looking for, a very good defensive partner! Thus, low scores in rounds 4-6or7.
