Whilst I know we're in the middle of a player population slump, I cannot believe that on a Saturday night, when the population on Steam is > 50000 that my region (including my fireteam) had 4 players match making for Comp. This obviously caused mongoose errors and had us kicked from matchmaking.
We were also all in our placement series, which I think made the ability to matchmake worse.
Bungie, please rework the Comp placement series to not just use a 'placement series pool' for matchmaking, but rather just matchmake us with the general Comp population and measure us based on skill in the assessment of the match.
