A widespread disconnect at Robeck in our favor

There were about 20 reds and 20 yellows at Robeck last night, and the reds had just punched a hole through the wall.
A few yellows battled at the breach, while the rest made for the inner keep to set up oil and counter seige.
About that time, a massive lag spike rippled through the keep. I thought it was just me getting ready to disconnect. Turns out, it was wider spread than I thought.
A few moments later, I DCed and immediately requeued for Cyrodiil. I figured at that time I was screwed - dead inside the keep with reds swarming over my body.
Nope. When I got back in, there were only two yellows inside Robeck, and a hole the wall. It was quiet. I thought, what the heck?
The yellows jumped to repair the wall, and as I was watching their backs, a red spawned in beside me on top of the wall.
I killed him quick, and then a handful of yellows and three reds spawned into Robeck. By then the wall was up, and the three reds were trapped inside.
They were dead in moments.
It turned out, everyone in that battle - all the reds and yellows - had DCed at the same time.
We got back into the game quicker.
A DC in our favor.

    A similar thing happened in BRK last night. The difference was a quarter of the fighters did not DC and those that did were frozen in place and we wiped all of the yellows from BRK. It felt kind of cheap, but we had the numbers to begin with and the keep was practically ours. 27K AP tick though.

    Even the game knows you need a handicap like that to even be relevant in cyrodill

    This happens a lot. Keep battles turn into who dc'd first.

    I'll be in Cyrodiil tonight. Look me up. Deedleqwerty, PS4/NA, Vivec server.

    We'll dance. You'll bleed. I'll get AP, and you'll be respawning.

    Last night on Kyne, right around the beginning of prime time, DC went on a rampage, and captured a lot of territory. After a mass crash, EP and AD started recovering everything. EP was pushing DC from the East and AD from the South, and it culminated when EP and AD converged on Fort Ash with pretty much every DC holed up inside to defend.

    The battle was amazing, and went on for a good 30-45 minutes, and then another mass crash happened and everyone seemed to quit after that.
