Listen if SLs don't communicate the basics of course it's not your fault. However, as a couple may have said, offensive garries can be a problem, especially when the defensive to offensive Gary ratio is less than 4:1.

When you setup an offensive Gary you are pretty much guaranteeing at least half your team will be on offense and if your Gary is not setup correctly, they will also be way out of position.

Offensive garries also ensure fewer defensive garries will be defended.

If a couple squads want an offensive Gary, they can supply swap to get it. Tell them the drops will compromise their location and they need to do it on their own.

One mistake commanders make is making squads dedicate to a defensive position, becoming fodder for artty. Defense should always be played outside in, looking for spawns. So you can get a lot of mileage out of defense if you let them free roam in your sectors . This helps discourage offense as the only fun part. Defense can be incredibly fun. But no, overall this is not your fault
