Pairing system in Tournaments

I've had this a few times now: If a tournament becomes not so popular and all but 2 players quit, the system might pair those 2 players once. Those players finish their game, but the system won't pair them again and it also won't end the tournament.

Also, in the last tournament, there were 3 players left. Two of us paired up, played a game, then nobody was paired up again. It showed up player as entered and not withdrawn, but they never played.

Is there a reason a tournament wouldn't pair players up?
