     #
     # To start matchmaking, provide a unique ticket ID, specify a
-    # matchmaking configuration, and include the players to be matched. You
-    # must also include a set of player attributes relevant for the
-    # matchmaking configuration. If successful, a matchmaking ticket is
-    # returned with status set to `QUEUED`.
-    #
-    # Track the status of the ticket to respond as needed and acquire game

-    # Ticket status updates are tracked using event notification through
-    # Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS), which is defined in the
-    # matchmaking configuration.
-    #
-    # **Processing a matchmaking request** -- FlexMatch handles a
-    # matchmaking request as follows:
-    #
-    # 1.  Your client code submits a `StartMatchmaking` request for one or
-    #     more players and tracks the status of the request ticket.
-    #
-    # 2.  FlexMatch uses this ticket and others in process to build an
-    #     acceptable match. When a potential match is identified, all
-    #     tickets in the proposed match are advanced to the next status.
-    #
-    # 3.  If the match requires player acceptance (set in the matchmaking
-    #     configuration), the tickets move into status
-    #     `REQUIRES_ACCEPTANCE`. This status triggers your client code to
-    #     solicit acceptance from all players in every ticket involved in
-    #     the match, and then call AcceptMatch for each player. If any
-    #     player rejects or fails to accept the match before a specified
-    #     timeout, the proposed match is dropped (see `AcceptMatch` for more
-    #     details).
-    #
-    # 4.  Once a match is proposed and accepted, the matchmaking tickets
-    #     move into status `PLACING`. FlexMatch locates resources for a new
-    #     game session using the game session queue (set in the matchmaking
-    #     configuration) and creates the game session based on the match
-    #     data.
-    #
-    # 5.  When the match is successfully placed, the matchmaking tickets
-    #     move into `COMPLETED` status. Connection information (including
-    #     game session endpoint and player session) is added to the
-    #     matchmaking tickets. Matched players can use the connection
-    #     information to join the game.
