If you read my post at the top of this page, you'll see that we decided that the no defense strategy was indeed a more viable strategy to win the match, than playing defense.

The monetary offer is what sparked the idea to not play defense. It is not what really made us do it, as far as I can tell.

So you guys went, "Hmmmm if we lost by 100+ by having 1 defender, maybe we can win with 0 defenders."

I dont see the logic. Also, I dont see how you cant see if the money brought you to any type of strategy, how that is bad.
