The teams that practice this strategy will loose in the long run because they have to play in the ELimination matches and they are not prepared to knock over stacks or do other things in order to win. [/b]


yea, we happen to be the team that was picked by the number one alliance and ended up losing in the first round due to a human error... we were also approached during a match, but we were confident enough in our capabilities that we did fairly well without our partner's help... it just makes one wonder about the whole elimination points versus actually winning and losing... like we won one and lost one in the finals, yet still got "beat." i do not agree with this practice, becuase it's not truly winning. You just had a good match.
