Massive Server Queue

I picked this server (just started playing 10 days ago) because it seemed like it would have a nice community but also because it is low population and I hate not being able to log in.

Now tonight I tried to log in and first it kicked me out after a minute once I was in. Then I tried to log in again and it said server queue 4000+

Then I tried again 10 minutes later and it said server queue 8000+

What is going on?

Is every new account on Steam being put on Brynhildr?

This is absurd, hopefully just something bugging out currently with the log into this server specifically that they'll fix, and not a massive influx of thousands and thousands of new players being put by the server recommendation system onto our single server, making it impossible for thousands of people to get in.

Or is anyone else getting the insane queue?

Now I just saw this news, so I hope this is simply the cause (of which it seems almost certain that it is)

And that this is soon fixed

There haven't been queues here since launch as far as I know. It's likely the aforementioned bug.

I would put my money on bug, there have been a good bit of them since the last patch.

Yeah, I've been getting error 2002 for about 24 hours now. My guess is tonight's maintenance has something to do with that.

Everyone in my company was getting kicked when they tried to enter instances last night.
