I was in a match today that started with 9 vs 10 players, after the first few minutes my team was a little ahead with 2 out of the 3 panels in our control, 3 or so people seemed to leave from the enemy team and with noone to shoot players left my team soon after. we ended up with a large map and 5-6 players on each team
I'm sure you'll be looking at the data but this might be an emerging issue.

One other issue that I certainly am not complaining about but has arisen today is that I've been earning a load of ISK and SP today due to (And I'm not really one to toot my own horn but) absolutely destroying every team I've fought today.
And I don't mean players I mean single handedly cutting my way threw 8 - 12 of the enemy team before being taken down. I'm not sure I've improved that much but that I'm fighting easier players. Not sure I'm enjoying the lack of challenge.

I'll need to see what it's like over the weekend.
We need to hear from the lower tier guys....
You wont get full teams till the player base we have grows, and it will grow if better matchmaking like this is being done because it wont drive away new players. you can't have both now, we need to wait and let the changes do their job

Story time:
I was playing as a new character this morning, to try out the lower Mu bracket.
After a while, I start seeing familiar names on the killscreen, going maybe 20/5, which is basically an exit criteria on its own.
I got curious, and looked up the top ranking players on both sides for my matches.
They were ALL alts of veteran players, freshly created today!
Not only that, but I could see all of their second alts, were scheduled for removal.
So tomorrow, they will have a fresh alt, and schedule today's alt for removal.
I am competitive, but what drives players to do this, slaughter players that are in many cases patently helpless?
The Academy is for new players to get their bearings, relatively risk free. Learn the maps, drop an uplink, spawn on uplink, try out the starter fits, scan, and hack.
Whatever, just writing this makes me furious. Just thought I would share that some will go to incredible lengths to grief, or pad their self esteem.
People are people, leave the psychology of it at the door, you just need to focus on ways to prevent it and keep those new players happy. let the shrinks wonder how people can be that petty. sort out a method of taking "abnormally" high K/D scores out of the academy and lump them in together. you'll soon have these players fighting each other. see how they enjoy the stomping then. take away their streaks and they'll soon go back to their main accounts.
