Russia, Germany, China???

So, as usual I'm way behind getting my postcrossing up to date.  But something I noticed the last two times I've requested addresses to send to:
All 4 of the addresses I sent to in October were in Russia.
7 of the nine addresses I requested today are for Germany and the other two are for China.
I've never had such high concentrations of certain countries before.

I did check the option to send to repeated countries a few months back.  That must be what is up.
