I'm sorry, EVILSIDE, but you're still missing the point. There's no actual blockade on our server. If you ask, a spot will be freed for you if you actually have a match. The matches aren't happening. We park for exactly the reasons a previous poster said: We're sick of asking if anyone has the non-existent match. And losing the same piece everyone else has is hardly a bad thing. My guys log in, check the seas and jump in if they can. If there's no boats, we do something totally crazy. We ask. Nicely. We have yet to be told no.
