Losing on Purpose to Gain Advantage

Some people use Autodesk, some SolidWorks, some Pro-E, but 772 rose to the call of an unconventional CAD language, Minecraft. - Walter Deitzler [more]

Re: Losing on Purpose to Gain Advantage

I think an interesting twist to this (that I don't think has been discussed yet) is what if you were the only one on the alliance for which the match counted and that your two partners were surrogates?

There are some instances where the teams don't break down neatly in the match schedule so there are some teams that play extra matches which don't affect their ranking.

So what if you wanted to "lose the battle to win the war" with absolutely NO negative impact on your partners?
