The idea is simple. In odd weeks (week1, 3, 5, etc) your server take on the rank (or rating) of the server above you, in regard to match up calculations. And in even weeks (week 2, 4, 6, etc) your server take on the rank of the server below you. This gives some additional variety in these randomized server match ups.
Take the server SOS for example. They are currently rank 8, and next week they will be rank 7. Their rating will be 1 807.881. Above them in rank 6 is FA at 1 833.973. Below them in rank 8 is Maguuma at 1 769.759.
If next week is an odd week, they will be considered rank 6 with a rating of 1 833.973. This means they will most likely face servers ranked 5 and 6. So they will most likely face servers above their level.
If next week is an even week, they will be considered rank 8 with a rating of 1 769.759. This means they will most likely face servers ranked 8 and 9. So they will most likely face servers below their level.
This little swing will further prevent stale match ups. Under this system, match ups like SOS facing TC for 4 weeks in a roll should only happen very rarely.
Thoughts?

SOS facing TC for 4 weeks in a roll
If every Server takes on the rank of the Server above or below them doesn’t that basically keep everything the same as it is now?
I’m confused…

LOL. If every server shifts in absolute terms, no server shifts in relative terms … and every matchup stays the same. Please tell me you don’t vote.
