Pardon my "bolding", but since when did being unable to comprehend the rules equate to "gracious professionalism"?
A better phrase might be "few teams followed their lead due to a desire to win the match rather than advance their ranking".
Just because the rules of this tournament are different from other tournaments doesn't make them any less the rules... and make no mistake, the rules are the rules whether we think they make sense or not.
