I was looking for a greater than 13 (detailed elsewhere) single court configurations with reasonable balance on played with/against if anyone has come across or figured out such combinations.

I am aware that you can have a balanced solution for 16 players and 30 games of 4 vs 4.


  ( 5  1 14  9 v 16  7  4  8) ( 3 15 13  6 v  2 10 11 12)
  ( 6  2 15 10 v 16  8  5  9) ( 4  1 14  7 v  3 11 12 13)
  ( 7  3  1 11 v 16  9  6 10) ( 5  2 15  8 v  4 12 13 14)
  ( 8  4  2 12 v 16 10  7 11) ( 6  3  1  9 v  5 13 14 15)
  ( 9  5  3 13 v 16 11  8 12) ( 7  4  2 10 v  6 14 15  1)
  (10  6  4 14 v 16 12  9 13) ( 8  5  3 11 v  7 15  1  2)
  (11  7  5 15 v 16 13 10 14) ( 9  6  4 12 v  8  1  2  3)
  (12  8  6  1 v 16 14 11 15) (10  7  5 13 v  9  2  3  4)
  (13  9  7  2 v 16 15 12  1) (11  8  6 14 v 10  3  4  5)
  (14 10  8  3 v 16  1 13  2) (12  9  7 15 v 11  4  5  6)
  (15 11  9  4 v 16  2 14  3) (13 10  8  1 v 12  5  6  7)
  ( 1 12 10  5 v 16  3 15  4) (14 11  9  2 v 13  6  7  8)
  ( 2 13 11  6 v 16  4  1  5) (15 12 10  3 v 14  7  8  9)
  ( 3 14 12  7 v 16  5  2  6) ( 1 13 11  4 v 15  8  9 10)
  ( 4 15 13  8 v 16  6  3  7) ( 2 14 12  5 v  1  9 10 11)

There might be something similar for 18 players and 51 games of 3 vs 3, and 20 players and 38 games of 5 vs 5.
