Is it okay to "throw" a match that will be replayed?

Just to clarify, we aren't throwing the match. We will still try our absolute hardest and will set winning as our top priority when we know there's a chance the match will count. We aren't trying to bring down our alliance partners or lower their ranking, we still want to win, we just don't want to play the same match again and again when we know it won't count. Our alliance partners will be informed of our strategy, and if they have any objections, or they don't think that we should do it, then we won't.
