We played 8 matches against 24 teams, 11 of which were numbered over 2130 and 13 were below. Of the 16 alliance partners, 13 were numbered above and only 3 were below.
Maybe the schedule generator should randomize the numbers before the teams are dumped in the schedule instead of sequentially.
I count 4 teams you were with below 2130 and 12 teams above. On the other hand, 4645 was with 12 teams below 2130 and 4 teams above and 193 was with 4 teams below and 12 teams above.

Even with randomization of inputs, someone would get a schedule like that, unless team number was an explicit factor in the scheduler.
