I was putting the question out there to see if somebody could point to a written rule or even a decision precendent which supercedes this.

It's not really a thrown game if it benefits you in some way. Throwing a game would be giving up for no apparent reason.

In that case, I think those tournament games should be unrated games, not counting towards the CC points system.

Not going to happen. All CC games count for points, regardless of where or how they're played.

All CC games had no round limit util a couple of days ago. Miracles can happen.

No for me CC is about winning the game you are playing - it says it in the rules.
Anything else is cheating.

If it were cheating, it would be against the rules and punished.

but the rounds limit does not affect the fact that you still loose points when you hit the limit.. so basic its a forced ending.. so night strike is striking home and true again

That may mean attacking the overall leader in a game to better your spot. It's all about the ultimate goal of winning the tournament. That's what makes tournaments more fun than public games, in my opinion and why I try to make my rules pretty simple and pretty clear in tournaments I run.
