This has, for better or for worse, been a long established precedent. Whenever a highly contested mob enters late into its window, both raids will show up in force. 15 manning a spawn is a very risky maneuver. It tires out your raiders, it's boring, and you might be unprepared when the mob does spawn. Generally, when a mob is 15 manned there are less than 4 hours on the window OR it is simply a tactic to log the other guild off.

In the case at hand, it seems the latter purpose was accomplished.

There's really no good solution for what happens when a window begins to close. That said, IB and TMO reached an agreement where 15 manning was illegal and both guilds abided by it. Perhaps that could be explored here.
