Every last seemingly insignificant drop of information you can give will be helpful.

After the matchmaking was done, the map selection screen took a while to load(usually happens when someone lags out/or people leave/turn off their xbox during loading - if the server is lagging people out that's another issue i guess - it has happened in 4 matches so far). Locust had 3 people and we had 5. We selected Gridlock. Before the match start where the countdown timer starts, at the bottom of the screen it said people waiting to join(can't remember the exact terminology used), it showed three names. Either at the beginning of the match or after they died the first time they re-spawned as COG(I can't confirm or deny that they spawned as COG in beginning because I wasn't paying attention to the number of people in our team). I can confirm that we had 7 people at the beginning of the second round because I checked using the tac com. My guess is that did spawn as COG at the beginning of the match because Locust always had one human player and two bots from the beginning of the match - 10 players maximum. It was over pretty past. The two players extra players who were playing as COG were in Locust in match details and they both had negative points.

I will ask my friends if they remember any additional details and I will update it if I remember sometime new.
