Temp ban yes. I had it too.
The number is the amout of seconds you have to wait.
do the math and you know how many hours/days.
I had only 3 hours but I know people who had 3 days
3 weeks is not uncommon either.
The temp ban is tagged to the cd key and account.
This means, the only way around this is to use a new cdkey and a new account.
If you use a new cdkey to try and access a tagged account, the tag is passed onto the new cdkey.
If you use your tagged cdkey to create a new account, the new account will be tagged.
This new “temp ban” of waiting in line (correctly explained as each position in line representing one second) makes the old method of changing your mac address or IP ineffective.
Continuing to attempt to create and join games will extend the length of the ban if it is flooded or abused.
It’s a good time to try out single player.
