GA matchmaking is perfect
It has been said by many that total GP is not sufficient for matchmaking. That it should take into account such things as zetas, gear levels, mods, and even specific meta characters. The two images...

I don't think it's anywhere near perfect.
I don't have a reference from the first go-round they canceled. The second attempt my opponent didn't put any defense down. So again, no reference.
But this time; I out halo'd and out zeta'd everyone in my group. Two of them didn't stand a chance against the remainder of us. Out of the six remaining; the difference between them and I was not GP, which is how we were matched. They had very strong fleets and I do not. This gives me a big advantage as they have to get through my fully halo'd/zeta'd sisters & fully halo'd/zeta'd bastila/gmy/jolee/ezra/gk squads. I knew before we started they were not going to get to use their ships for attack.
I think they should adjust where ships go. I'm saying this as someone who will be disadvantaged if they do it. Move ships into their own section that can be attacked at anytime without having to go through my squads. That evens up the GP a bit more now.
And while they're at it (nothing to do with GP); don't let us see the updated score. If we have to wait 24 hours for joins, setups, etc. just to attack; why give someone who can login and play the last hour of attack phase a strategical advantage of knowing exactly what they have to do to win. Make everyone fight their own battle and compare scores. IMO
