I've heard of this game the US ran before and it's always funny when it gets brought up. A lot of the guys on blue team are still salty about it and insist red team broke the rules or some other dumbfuck reason.
There's an element of truth in the butthurt in that it did take advantage of quirks in how losses were calculated.
