Re: Intentionally Losing Matches
We were offered a 'deal' by a drive team in a regional about 4 years ago.
If we would make sure they won the last match (we were opponents), they promised to pick us as their first selection. Winning the match would have made them for sure the #1 seed.
We declined, and played the match the best we could. I cannot remember if we won or lost the match. Our team even agreed that if they were to select us in the draft, that we would decline, even if that meant we would not play.
Our view of that team was completely chenged based on their "offer", even if it only reflected the view of a few on the drive team.
Your reputation as a team will live on, long after the memory of a match won or lost.
