We're actively looking for ideas on how to improve Weekly Challenges and would love to hear what you think!

This week's challenge was submitted by @PhilipMannering - Thanks for your contribution!
This problem was inspired by a question on the Community forums:
With remote working the norm, it's difficult to get some one-on-one time with other people in your team. Given the list of names, generate pairings of people for each week. Everyone should have a partner. And no pairing should be repeated.
I can only think in (nested) iterative macros this week...
I still want to tackle odd number of competitors but I believe I replicated the "Circle Method" in my macro.
Fun one! Started doing iterative but wished to avoid iterative within iterative so just went to wikipedia to be told what to do 😄
Will only work for an even number of people.
This was a fun one. Very interested in seeing other solutions. Thanks to @Greg_Murray for showing how to capture all intermediate results from an iterative macro in last week's challenge.
