Hi,

 

It was fun to see how other people approached this issue.

I may have to try this one as a macro but this solution will do for now.

I figured out the pairings but seem to have too many results for Net Scrooginess, hmm.

ok, I'm not sure why the solution is only showing Net_Scrooginess of 11, 12 and 13 when 1-10 are also less than 13...

 

I know I'm not letting people match themselves, but I think I have 2x as many records as I need because of the  a = b is the same as b = a  issue.

 

Wish there was an official solution!

There is definitely a macro solution to this too. Went for the easy road.

Not sure this method can be expanded beyond this example, but it works 😅
