It's about #Delve2012, clearly.

(I think it's the Fearless one, with the burnt out Vindi, but I can't be sure anymore, everything's so blurry)

Two thoughts:

1.) The match started with the vindi's dishing out serious dps on each other... while it seem to devolve into retardation, it started off as a serious match. The only argument people could provide to the contrary, is the broadsword team was very...... different. It still had enough dps to drop a Vindi through an ASB and enough tank to not be instantly vaporized by vindi dps.... I think their setup definitely qualifies as a valid setup to bring, even if it was very unusual. The dual vindi team was also moderately standard.

2.) Whether the Vindi pilot displayed a serious lack of prowess that we typically expect from tourney pilots, or whether they purposely threw the match after their team got enough points to progress is completely irrelevent. Making a deal with your opponent, while viewed as poor sportsman-like, is pretty standard for the AT. There are many, many matches where this was blatantly done in local. These teams competed at the start of the match, and that's what CCP really asked for... When one team has a solid lead after duking it out, teams are still allowed to sell points and ?victories? to their opponents.... They just can't do so in a manner that completely undermines their tourney progress.
