A lot of people will camp by the stairs because they don't want to be rushed from behind. I did the same thing to people in SWAT matches. That's part of the reason everybody hates Desolation/Tombstone. (Personally, I don't mind Desolation, but Warlock and Tombstone are TERRIBLE)
As far as the flag thing goes, I can't see why one melee killed you unless you randomly got shot and didn't know. I guess the other guy got lucky. I always see random melee things. For example, when I was sword lunging today, I was shotgunned/meleed before I got to the guy, and consequently killed. How a person was able to do both of those actions during a lunghe is beyond me, but whatever.
I'm sure the melee has problems. I have been beaten down by people who are to the side of me facing the wall behind me. A lot is just up to the computer when it has to decide which of two people with no sheilds meleeing each other should die, I guess. I agree that melee should be straightened out, but until then the most that you can do is try to practice how it works.
