They are absolutely not the same.

"Throwing" a match is intentionally getting a negative outcome for yourself and everyone on your alliance. This is extremely selfish and hurts your partners. People were advocating intentionally aiming for low seeding scores just to disrupt 1114.

1114 sought to maximize their seeding points for them and their partners in one match. The strategy that did that was to not win the match. The result was beneficial for the entire alliance, just a different strategy than is intuitive.

So no, 1114 did not do the same thing as everyone else advocated on Chief Delphi. They played to maximize their seeding points, not to bring down their alliance partners. Please stop pretending they are the same thing.
