It seems to be intermittent, I tried several times to start my queue this evening over the course of about 15 minutes (3001 error world is full over and over), walked away for a few, then came back and queued to 1418 on coeurl only to be sitting at that number for over 5 minutes now. I'm guessing my queue is actually much higher than this but it's not showing properly. Previous nights have been 3600, 4200, and 4900 respectively.

Ironically the queue times are making me more eager to play, as I now know that success in logging in is not guaranteed so if I get on after a queue I better make the most of my time.
