Either one. That's now your additional challenge to the game for the last 2 remaining alliance partners - Should have checked with them ahead of time to make sure they were fixed ! (imho)

If I were to argue one way or another I would say YES.
My reasoning is that if the answer was no, & I knew a team racked up the score, I would intentionally ditch a match so I wouldn't get a penalty.

But that's not very nice, now is it? Leaving your partners left out to dry just because one (or both) tend to double scores, & they are high risk teams!
That's not cool to be able to choose your destiny like that even before you enter the field.
