(Correspondence) What algorithm does OGS follow when choosing which game to play next?

Yes I agree, I can certainly see the desire for sorting by time which is why I’d be happy to accept a pull request to add that in as an option. Currently the average number of games that correspondence players have going on at any one time is about 10, which makes me think the current sorting system is a good default. But yeah once you get 50, 100, 200 games going at once, sort by time seems like it’d make the most sense.
