It may have to do with play times also that you have been playing, and some pure luck, as every single server had queue times certain times during the day. I know this from selecting them all, one by one down the list, looking for any that didn't have too much of a wait time. I did find one that had less than the usual wait eventually and have also been logging on at 2-3 a.m. to find no wait times too on my server.
The thing is the game already has a channel system built in, so I don't understand why they don't just raise the channels available and put more server power to the current servers to support the channels, rather than open new servers that may have to be closed later. They even mention themselves that problem, people open with all the servers to hold all the new players coming on, and then a few months down the road they have to close a number of them and merge the servers, ending up screwing over a lot of paying players on the current servers (they usually have to pick different names, etc). If they just raise the channels they can scale them back later without having to do any server merging...
