chess.com matching algorithm

Anyone else find the matching algorithm isnt entirely random?

I find I usually get people who play the same openings, several times in a row.

Might not get a center counter/scandi opening for 3 days, then get 5 of them in a row. This sort of thing.

Anyone else find this?

Lol now the matching system should also monitor what openings players use and match according to that? Ridiculous.

Why so defensive?

You are absolutely right, I had queen's gambit 3 games in a row. And this has been happening strangely frequently. I don't know why the acting like a total jerk from the responder, but you're absolutely right.

Why would chess.com monitor openings and throw people in matches based on that? If you think about it, it’s just a waste of time and resources. True randomness is random.

I play the same opening everytime because I am only playing chess a couple months now and I always get almost a mirror image opening game. My rank here is weak but on that other popular site I am 1002 and always totaly random games - here 442.. so its obvious thats how it works IMO

I have noticed the repetition of very strange dynamics on chess.com ... for example, once I reach a certain score, I suddenly start facing groups of opponents who are much stronger than those previously encountered who lower my score by up to 200 points ...and these dynamics present themselves periodically ...I also noticed what you described in the topic

I only play the Scandinavian as Black and the Centre game as white. Never alter.
