Tanking means you try to lose every game

No, tanking and losing are two different things.

I'm not sure where you got your definition of tanking, but I'm pretty sure everyone else knows that if you are tanking you are losing on purpose. Just look at the title of this post.

You can lose all matches without tanking...
So tanking doesn't mean losing.

Of course you can lose all matches without tanking
but tanking is the "attempt" to lose,
losing on purpose
kind of, like, the title

Some of the teams haven't logged in since mid December. Anyway, it doesn't really matter if he is relegated because he'll come right back up in the bot cleanup.
