I was sure there was a different algorithm for district events as we had 36 teams and 12 matches so no surrogates and yet played against the same team 3 times and never played with at least 4 teams.

I now see there are other factors that figure in to the equation.

I used the algorithm to generate a match schedule for an event with just 22 teams at it. Worked fine in making sure that teams did not get the same alliance partners/opponents too many times, and that was to my surprise, I expected that teams would have to play with each other several times because of how few teams there were, but this was not really the case. However, some teams had to play back-to-back matches.
