Well, either it is a mistake in the system, or it was ensuring that you weren't paired against an unfairly inferior or superior team. At the risk of you not having been picked, perhaps a few post about coaches complaining about their draw was reduced.

I don't know, but may be Christer thinks it's too unlikely to be worried with.
And may be it is.

Hey, that would make you very unlucky... ouch
Sorry (really)

If it has happend more times, may be it's an issue... and there were a thread about those.

I think it's the TS of your teams that is the issue, which will only be the case until they have some games under their belts.

3 Teams are under 100 TS, which means that it requires another rookie team, of a certain race to be in the system for any of those 3 to get a match.

1 Team is 188 TS, and seeing as it is still early days, there is not many teams that high quite yet, so they may struggle to get matched.

That means that your 105 TS Dark Elves or 119 TS Amazons are the most likely to be matched at this moment in time.

However, one day your teams will be 110, 115, 150, 165, 190 and 210 and the broad range of TS on show will almost guarentee you a match.

probably count the 119 TS Amazons as weird to match too, as racial factors and handicaps are in use nowadays and hence pairing them with Dwarves needs rookie and beaten Dwarves but pairing them against anithing else puts handicaps into the ecuation making the match less likely (to my limited understanding of the formula)

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe that racial factors are in use.

The suitability score takes the win probability for both these figures based on respective ranking and strength, just like in R. Let's call these two probabilities P and bashP. These are as in R adjusted with the racial factor according to the charts available in the stats section.

Correction made.
(...as long as the most recent changes haven't taken out the racial factors without me being aware)
(still those shouldn't have a great impact on the suitability of matches)
