It depends when you're playing. We usually get in immediately but sometimes it takes an age when there's teams of 4 everywhere and you see "No opposing party has joined."

/agreed it really makes a difference to play during the day instead of early in the evening.
Forgot to mention that in my previous post. Still the main factor in times seems to be the fact if you are playing advantage or disadvantage, since the Luxons have little loading times when the map is Grenz at early in the evening in Europe.

the explanation I favour in addition to those suggested is that there are simply more seasoned luxon players ABing as their sole means of obtaining faction quickly than there are kurzick.
why would this be? those in the top alliances need to farm their faction's faction to retain a place in their guild. The fastest way to do this for kurzicks is by cheating a quest to quickly obtain the reward (yes I choose to call it cheating because the quest wasnt designed to be carried out in the way it is). For luxons the quickest way is through AB.
Hence there are more experienced luxon players playing more of the time, hence the luxons effectively have a permanent extra advantage, hence grenz is effectively the neutral area a lot of the time.
