ending the first pairing strategy based on the sequence numbers;
initiating a second pairing strategy based on the sequence numbers;
ending the second pairing strategy based on the sequence numbers;
assigning a first set of values to contacts assigned by the first pairing strategy;
assigning a second set of values to contacts assigned by the second pairing strategy; and
