I really don't think that someone who isn't even a super-titan would be matched against the number 1 in the hidden rankings list... (If his skill rating is high enough he should already have been placed in a super-titan league).

My guess is that only the top 5 (or something) players have a high enough skill rating to be matched against p1noyboypj and if none of those starts a game for a certain amount of time (after p1noyboypj starts his game) then he is matched against the first one who starts a new game (regardless if that player is in fluffy, gifted or whatever).

If this is the case maybe it could be altered so that (after some time) you aren't matched against just anyone but someone closer to your skill-rating (e.g. p1noyboypj being matched against any other super-titan but not below that). Don't know if I was able to explain what I meant, but hopefully someone gets what I was trying to say... And like I said, just my guess.

That actually does make sense and is something we are hoping the devs address soon. That is, when you queue up if there is not an instant match found you queue up a game as Player 1. When swimj was looking for an opponent, if there was someone waiting in his range he would've started as P2. But if not, he would open up his own P1 game and have to wait to be matched up. Then since p1noy and swimj are both waiting for a second player as P1, they cannot be matched up to play no matter how much time passes.
