The way you worded this seems to imply that upon getting the message that there is 68 people in queue, you are closing that message and trying to log in again. If that is the case then you are leaving the queue. When you end up getting the queue message, do not close it and just wait, it will refresh itself automatically and you will get in (or not, sometimes it will still 1017 you but it at least FEELS like odds are better).
