When was this stated? IIRC, the old quickplay system wasn't supposed
to put you in an empty server (though it sometimes did). The new system
was supposed to match N players together and then put them in a server,
empty or otherwise.

Its because of the major design flaw in the MvM matchmaking system.
From what Valve has said, MvM matchmaking wont put people in an empty
server, even if its a 6-person party. Thats why we have so many empty
servers and 10,000 people in matchmaking queue with a wait time of 30
minutes.

I jump on every few hours and when empty, restart them.
They typically fill within a few minutes.
6 servers. 4 of them had crashed between last night (midnight EST)
and when I checked around noon EST.

There are way more empty servers than populated ones. The
popularity and business is why we went from 1 server to 3. Is the
matchmaking more efficient now, bugs fixed, or just that many less
people playing?

Its a bit concerning.
