Hey Flak,

I have been experiencing this issue on my new map for a couple weeks now too. My map name is Midnight Massacre Halloween FFA (8942-1492-2947). It tries Finding Server for about 35 seconds and then throws a Matchmaking Error #1.

I have attached the logs you mentioned from trying to join a Public match on my map, of which was unsuccessful. Hope this helps and let me know if you need any additional information! Thanks.
