Curiouser and curiouser

I was playing for a good while with this this evening:

LiveJournal Connect! Enter your username in the left box, someone else's username (or a * for a random one) in the right box, and press the button! -> Quiet Mutual 2 chains No 1-hop Users to ignore: Coded by sachmet

I did more than a few searches from various random users to myself (including randomuser and downunder). All of my paths of connections connected to me through one of three people on my friends list: turtleduck, suecochran, or museinred.

This surprised me. I expected that more, or at least some, connections would come through madbodger and moviebear. Boy, was I was ever mistaken.

The world is not as i would imagine it, at least in this small way. Though I'm sure it's not as I would imagine in other ways which I choose to either ignore or not imagine/consider at this point in time.

I suspect that the people who were loaded into this toy's database first are selected preferentially.
