Which is patently false, but that's what ends up happening.
This reminds me of my own group, lol. We do things so opposite of what most groups do things I have actually named the raid LS "WE DO THINGS BACK ASSWARDS"

A few examples:

T11 - We tank Kaliyah in the opposite direction most people run and we also have tether groups run in the opposite direction as most PuG strategies (I believe most people tank South while we tank North? And most people run right while we run left)
A11S - We explode south tower for space in the final phase when most groups preserve the south tower in anyway humanly possible for their clears
Zurvan - In final phase, we tank Zurvan E-W prior to rotating clockwise and positioning groups N-S as Lost Seal is going out while most groups have their groups N-W prior to Southern Cross and then splits E-W after Southern Cross
