PvP event limiting pool of potential players

I've noticed you don't seem to be able to play all the players in your bracket in a PvP. In fact, I seem to be limited to a very small amount of them.
A few Events ago, I just played one player, all the time. Couldn't get anyone else, no matter how much I quit out of nodes and re-entered, or how many games I played. This last event started the same way, with me only being able to play one player, but gradually, as the number of players in my bracket grew, I was able to play a second, then up to 4, and finally, at the end of the event, I could play about 10 different people, in a bracket of at least 180. I kept a list of their names just to be sure, and I quit and re-started a lot of levels to be even more sure.
Come to think of it, this would explain why I had to play EDHDad's Kiora deck so many times in the first NoP (it's a shocker of a deck, I don't mind telling you!), and it might also explain why sometimes people enter the event and can't find any opponents to play (which hasn't happened to me but I've seen reported a number of times).
What's going on? It's even been suggested to me that this is because there are large numbers of fake players in the game, but I suspect that's a little paranoid.
