Amusing Battleground top score

A couple of days ago I did a Crazy King battleground, which we won, and I ended up as the top scorer overall, despite the fact that I am a PVE player. It was only when I looked at the stats that I saw something amusing; no deaths, no kills and no assists.

Has anyone done this before?

    Well thats just... wonderful!
    Player 1 "You all suck, dont you know how to play this game?"
    Player 2 "Huh?"
    Player 1 "just run passed everything!"
    Player 3 "We could just kill them on the way"
    Player 4 "Why am I 89% of total DPS, one of the only ones that Qued as DPS, and yet in a group with 3 other DPS that cant seem to kill the basic mobs in a normal dungeon, and being told I suck?"
    Player 1 "Whatever, GFL"
    Player 1 has left the group...

    I was doing what you are supposed to be doing; running around like a looney, collecting flags. I didn't waste time fighting; you don't get any points for it.

    I usually score highly in Crazy King and Domination. Most people waste time fighting; it's more efficienct to zig when others are zagging.

    Well he did what the gamemode wants. He defended your flags and took enemy ones without dieing so obviously he wins.

    Points in crazy king come from turning flags, not from killing players. When you turned the most flags, this is absolutely fine and not bugged.

    Yes, it is amazing how many people don't understand the rules.

    Yeah I forgot about that one though often I find it hard to not be in some form of combat at some point during a match as others will attack me and what not.

    I almost did once. I just got level 10 and my equipment was broken and I had maybe lvl 1 resto staff so I could not possibly kill anyone. I just ran around capturing flags and retreating if I saw enemies. Maybe I had some assists, but no kills and very little or no deaths. What's more funny, enemies and my teammates were mostly fighting each other, so when we (I, basically) won, our team was ahead by 300+ points.

    Maybe if you were afk for first few flags, so never had to engage anyone.

    I hate how some of these gamemodes encourage avoiding to fight as it's usually more effective to just run around taking flags than to do any combat. Especially defending them is incredibly worthless.

    I actually like avoiding PvP in my PvP!

    Always hate it when a deathmatch BG comes up. hehe

    I think a lot of them had no idea what they were doing. After the first flag, which I was present, most of the flags were empty. I spent most of the battleground wondering where everyone was.

    I dont mind deathmatch; whilst I am not good at it, and die more than I kill, my combined kills and assists usually outweigh my deaths.

    It's the chaosball I can't stand.

    They encourage people to play more tactically than just stab! Shoot! Kill!
