That's your problem. It means the server keeps emptying.
Egypt is notorious for that.. Filled, emptied, filled, emptied. Usual reason is teams are really imbalanced/one gets steamrolled.

competent or competitive?
All respect to those who want to play and win... but during a fill its non-conducive to obtaining your fill.
This can not be stressed enough. The number of players who join then promptly quit due to an imbalance of teams kills a server rank faster then any amount of filling can counter. Also taking it one step further, too many people idling will also kill a server and in turn the rank. When one joins a server thinking there are 7-8 people in the server but 5-6 are sitting in spectate idling, they promptly leave and server rank drops. Just my two cents from my time trying to help fill servers and watching server ranks go up and down.
Ah, more discussion on server filling.
There have been people who believed that trying to complete the objective and creating some action when filling would more easily fill the server. While this is certainly true to some extent, I, for the most part, greatly disagree for one reason: People have different reasons for joining. Some may want to play for real, some may just want to goof around. Because of this, an imbalance shows up between the teams and one side starts dying more. People leave, and that's what empties a server.
That being said, Egypt emptying so easily from a full status is not because our players are too good, but because the rank is simply too low to sustain itself. It can't walk on its own yet because the normal outflow of people leaving the server is larger than the inflow that matchmaking gives us.
We just need to keep playing on Egypt. Or have a temporary map change at the next big event.

Nix, I am not talking about a full server that empties due to a stacked team or any other reason. I speak of filling a server with 4 people...2v2 and one side constantly caps. On egypt that means Red at most will spawn twice, when people join a server and this happens and they leave due to this it will drop the ranks....doesnt matter what server.
As I write this egypt's rank has fallen to 1531, a 13 point drop. Not due solely on this instance but it did not help in the matter.
