Really? I prefer to keep the schedules as close as possible for teams in the same division to preserve the integrity of winning the division.
I thought/(was hoping I guess) something along the lines of (using 3 divisions): A1vB1, A2vB2, A3vB3, A4vB4, A5vC1, A6vC2, A7vC3, A8vC4, B5vC5, B6vC6, B7vC7, B8vC8 (and rotating within the groups of 4/half divisions) would allow the odd number to work; but, I'll certainly defer to your expertise.
Barring that, I'd be happy/thankful to get a schedule per your suggestion, where each team plays 3 teams from each of the other 8 divisions.
