Yes, they weren't idiots, they just were so jaded that they decided to fight in the middle for no apparent strategic, tactical, or logical reason whatsoever.
No reason that we could understand. You need to take into account that not everyone that entered AV had the same goals that we did. We always tended to want to win. I'm sure that there were plenty of players who simply wanted to get kills or thought they new a better way to win.
"Hamilton is really a Colossus to the anti republican party. Without numbers he is an host within himself. They have got themselves into a defile where they might be finished but too much security on the republican part will give time to his talents and indefatigableness to extricate them. We have had only middling performances to oppose to him. In truth when he comes forward there is nobody but yourself who can meet him. His adversaries having begun the attack he has the advantage of answering them and remains unanswered himself. For God's sake take up your pen and give a fundamental reply to Curtius and Camillas" - Thomas Jefferson to James Madison
