Maybe I can give a helpful hint. For the interdivision games, rather than treating each subleague as 5 divisions of 4 teams, split up each division and treat it as though there are 10 "half-divisions" of 2 teams.

Then you have an even number of "half-divisions" to allow for everybody in the league to have an interdivision matchup at the same time. Just make sure to exclude the divisional matchups from getting into those "half-divisions" matchups.

Here is an example of splitting each division into half-divisions "A" and "B"...
Code:
2A 1A    3A 1B    4A 2B    5A 3B    5B 4B
1A 3A    4A 2A    5A 1B    5B 2B    4B 3B
4A 1A    5A 3A    5B 2A    4B 1B    3B 2B
1A 5A    5B 4A    4B 3A    3B 2A    2B 1B
5B 1A    4B 5A    3B 4A    2B 3A    1B 2A
1A 4B    3B 5B    2B 5A    1B 4A    2A 3A
3B 1A    2B 4B    1B 5B    2A 5A    3A 4A
1A 2B    1B 3B    2A 4B    3A 5B    4A 5A
Each half-division matches up there once against each other half-division outside its division. (Maybe double-check my work to make sure)

The upper-left pod of "2A 1A" corresponds to four games since 1A encompasses teams 1 & 2 and 2A encompasses teams 5 & 6...

Code:
5 v 1    6 v 2
6 v 1    5 v 2
