Re: NJ Elim Yellow Card Oddity

They're not attached to your "permanent record" and nobody cares about them after the tournament is finished. As defined in T05, a yellow card is an Official Warning, and nothing more.
I kinda hope teams don't just shrugs off Yellow Cards like this. Or, at least, I hope any team in the Elims doesn't. If you've gotten a Yellow Card, it's usually for a good reason, and it means the refs are going to be watching you a little more closely. If my team got carded in the elims I know we'd be a little more wary of our actions for fear of getting a second card and DQ'd. I can't imagine that a Yellow Card wouldn't have some sort of effect on a team unless they're completely oblivious and uncaring about how their actions might affect their alliance.
