G14 Scenario

I know a similar issue has been discussed in full. Would you score on yourself to prevent a G14? That is why we are not going to discuss that here. We will also not discuss any outcome of this scenario.

However, this thought passed through my mind. You are up against some heavy hitters. They just doubled your score, you see they are about to score on their own alliance. There are 10 seconds left. You could easily go and seperate the two to prevent scoring.

What would you think from the stands? from the winning alliance? from the losing alliance?

This could become a viable strategy especially during the elimination rounds when you will be playing that alliance again and ranking points really don't matter.

To start off, I really don't think I would do this myself. However, I do believe that some might and am just trying to see what others would think of this seemingly overlooked scenario.
