One comment added: In swiss tournaments, proper pairing for the first round is the more important the larger the number of players relative to the number of rounds.
(Typical case: number of rounds = c * log(number of players), where c is a constant larger than 1, and log is meant for base 2.) In the KGS tournament, there were 12 rounds for 12 participants, so pairing for round 1 was not really crucial.
