2009:

All teams on the winning ALLIANCE will receive a number of ranking points equal to the unpenalized score (the score without any assessed penalties) of the losing ALLIANCE.
All teams on the losing ALLIANCE will receive a number of ranking points equal to their final score
(with any assessed penalties).

So you get ranking points based on your opponents scoring, making it a strategy to score on yourself, also, you were penalized for having too high a score.

2010:

All teams on the winning ALLIANCE will receive a number of seeding points equal to the penalized
score (the score with any assessed penalties) of the winning ALLIANCE plus 5 additional points for
winning the match.
All teams on the losing ALLIANCE will receive a number of seeding points equal to un-penalized
score (the score without any assessed penalties) of the winning ALLIANCE.

Thus, giving the losing alliance YOUR score, and you get your score minus penalties. The 5 bonus points for winning did't exist week one (we were a week one regional, and quickly figured out that winning meant nothing)

2011:

Each TEAM on the winning ALLIANCE will receive a number of ranking points equal to the
unpenalized score (the score without any assessed penalties) of the losing ALLIANCE.
Each TEAM on the losing ALLIANCE will receive a number of ranking points equal to their final
score (with any assessed penalties).

Giving YOU the losing alliance's score, if they didn't score anything, you got zip.
