Otherwise, there is no reason to ever think you will have to turn on your ally.
If the game is "Last man standing", I will form alliances and make sure everyone understands that when I make agreements with them. I also realize that, perhaps, if one of "us" makes it to be the Last man standing, and we have to "part our ways" and duke it out, I know I (all of us) contributed to the winner...enabling him to beat us. To me, I feel a part of his victory. In the 1st round of the Tourney, I gave credit to Mark Pash for helping me be the Last man standing. I'd hope I'd get some mention if a partnership I was in helped someone else become the Last man standing.
