Ever since the 3ds launch, I've adored the 2v2 format for online matches. If I feel like I'm not playing very well one day, I'll just go into Doubles with Jigglypuff and have a great time.
Obviously its not as popular as the 1v1 setting, but theres always been more than enough people to play it. At 3 AM (CST) I'd still find a lobby in seconds, and if somebody backed out you'd rarely have to wait over a minute.
Just yesterday though, it seems like everybody quit. I was playing from about noon-2:00 PM with no issues, I backed out of the lobby I was in, tried to join another and it couldn't find anybody. I thought this was a bit weird, several times in a row I was in a match by myself even after the timer for character selection runs out. I started a stopwatch, and after 5 minutes with zero people found I just got off for a bit. To be safe, I checked my internet connection (which probably isn't the issue considering I was able to find 1v1s just fine) and unplugged my wii u.
After getting back on at roughly 5:00, Team Smash was still deserted. I decided to go all in and wait for half an hour, counting how many people joined in.
There were 2. One after about 3 minutes, they left at the 8 minute mark, then another person after about 12 minutes. I'm trying to find matches at this very moment, having no success. Did everybody in the world decide to abandon team smash and I just didnt get the memo?
Update* one month after my first "offense", Im finally allowed to play with people now. A month. I did nothing. -.-
