I really dont understand what's so hard to fix these kinds of problems. It was brought up last year, they fix one part, but not the rest.
With so many smart math people in the FIRST community, you would think these kinds of things could be avoided.
When people discuss a schedule being random, we dont have to get technical about it and everyone knows what we mean.
Excuses that because we want all the matches as equally timed apart is not good enough to have the scheduling the way it did and to have to wait year after year for slow gradual improvements.
I can honestly say this with conviction because it happened with some regionals and it didnt with others.
With only 7 matches to play after spending $$$$$ to get there, its in the best interest of everyone to maximize the opportunities for everyone to play with/against everyone as equally as possible while meeting other parameters.

The Hawaii regional match pairings alone is proof that this can be done for ALL regionals and championships.
