Ace Chemicals: Locked Out "Worst Guests I've Ever Had"

Order of events:

1. Defeated Duncan and Rinty
2. A player was Away and had wiped in the middle area where T.O. Morrow gives his spiel about us being the worst guests he's ever had
3. The other 3 players entered the middle area, myself included
4. We wiped in the middle area due to there being only 3 of us and the Ace Patrolman and Experiment Hazmat enemies overwhelming us
5. We kicked the player who was away
6. We heard T.O. Morrow call us the worst guests again despite no one being in the middle area
7. The middle area closed all gates off and began the wave of 5 security patrols with us locked out
8. We waited to see if the gates would open after all 5 patrols arrived and the chemoid was formed
9. The group disbanded when it became apparent that the instance was bugged with no way to continue

So you all got thrown into the acid batch chemical mix, are we celebrating your groups funeral?

If only that had been the case. Would have preferred a 2nd wipe and reset over a 1st wipe and reset with us locked in the area with the vendor.
