Same thing at FLR if it had 36 teams instead of 35 assuming the 36th team had # > 365.

Fixed in the original post - thanks. 357 - welcome to the mid-level euphoria. And 1305, well you guys are just flipping out right now, you inexperienced youngins, you
. To now have the chance at seeing the algorithm put you with that somewhat-inexperienced 1114 all day long? Go Canada.

I know FIRST probably will not fix this by Championship, but I hope they will by next year. I suggest pregenerating optimized random matrices (ie check all combinations) with constraints for cycle time for every combination of number of teams at a regional and reasonable number of matches. Then randomize the team list to matrix spots and drop them in the corresponding spots in the matrix.
