Re: Don't count goals scored for the opposition - Yes or No?

Would it hurt to go a little further with the following scheme?

Winner gets penalized winner's score + penalized loser's score
Loser gets penalized loser's score

Coopertition is still intact in that a dominant alliance can choose to not play defense and kick balls to the lesser alliance's zone and get a few points out of it. The lesser alliance also isn't forced to give the dominant alliance twice their score if they are horribly outnumbered (2 dead robots scenario).

All in all, I think it's quite apparent that giving the losing team the winning team's score IS the root of the problem.
