I don't doubt some of The Dead may use zergs, assFx might even still be a zerg, but this department has always been a little too eager for my tastes to call out "zerg" at the sign of basic coordination. Given that the in-game flags prevent anyone on the same IP attacking in the same location, which is what you're describing, you're talking about someone having multiple windows open with multiple versions of the game running through separate proxies. Doable, but a reasonable amount of effort. Given the coordination I've seen on chan boards before, it's not at all impossible that what is commonly called zerging can be done with separate, rule obeying individuals. There's also plenty of players in this game who joined together with similar names for RP purposes, so we can't rely on that for proof either.
I'm not saying zergs don't exist, or not to accuse people of zerging. But calling out zerg is calling the other team cheats. Works fine if you catch them; but if you're mistaken, you come across as unable to cope with losing.
TL;DR Brains, zergs can go to hell, and we hope you're telling the truth about the Ass characters no longer being controlled by zergs, and The Dead not supporting zergs.
