Please check your facts before posting. New games always start with 6 players and are sent to an empty servers. (Where else would we send them?)
Average wait times for both Boot Camp and Mann Up have been 2-3 minutes since Tuesday.

From what Valve has said, MvM matchmaking won't put people in an empty server, even if it's a 6-person party. That's why we have so many empty servers and 10,000 people in matchmaking queue with a wait time of 30 minutes.
