From the Judge's guide:
****
161. Cheating - Bribery
Definition:
A player attempts to bribe an opponent into changing the results of a
game by offering inducements outside of the current game.
Example:
A player offers an opponent cash or cards to throw a game.
Philosophy:
Players in the finals of a tournament should not be considered in
violation of this rule as long as they meet the following criteria:
No player introduces incentives outside the current game such as cash,
cards, or other items. (For example, splitting the prizes would be
acceptable.)
All players involved in all affected games agree on the outcome.
Penalty:
Disqualification without Prize.
****
If i read this correctly, in a final round down to two players, one
player can offer the other player the prizes she will get in return
for the other person throwing the game to them.
Which means, if you're in a final, you don't have to 'play to win'?
or does it mean _this_ peanalty won't apply if one person offered the
other person the prizes for a throw, but the person on the losing side
will still get penalized by the unsportsmanlike conduct rules for not
playing to win?
