The problem is not with teams that choose to forfeit games or collude, the problem is with the system. If you invite smart kids to play within a system, then they are going to figure out how to play the system smart. Asking teams to NOT do what the system invites them to do is not reasonable or realistic. If throwing matches 6v0 is not a behavior we want happening, then we need a system that does not reward it. I'm afraid the GDC simply over-reached on the cooperition factor, with unintended consequences.
