red seems to go first maybe 70-80% or at least more than 50% making it hard to want to join a waiting 1 v 1 or poly , especially given red knows the map better
Specifics/Details:
insure it's truly random
How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:
people will be more willing to join waiting games

I just checked my last 30ish Poly (3v3)
Red: 6 Green: 10 Blue: 1
Yellow: 2 Pink: 4 Cyan: 5
This ah "proves beyond ALL reasonable doubt" that GREEN is the problem, and that CC is absolutely racist against Blue people!!! Red had 2 until the last 4 games I checked which were all red
Seriously though, I hope you are looking at HUNDREDS of games before even beginning to form a conclusion. Before even beginning to take something like this seriously you'd have to have a rather large sample size. It should be much easier to disprove that people's lingering doubts about the randomness of our intensity cubes though
Someone jsut needs to be a doll, and find a player that has played 1000 poly games, and give us the stats. Pretty please?

I think he meant the one creating the game, i.e. red in the case of a 1vs1. In your example 17 for host and 11 for guest. I wont bother to check mine. I dont think it is true but in any case, 1vs1 sucks anyway, and in poly it doesnt matter much except on some extremely unbalanced map.

It should be close enough to random that you couldn't notice the difference unless you looked very carefully at a very large set of games. So if it is not, that is important to know. But it requires more than your recollection; you need to count up a decently large set of games (at least a couple hundred) and see how many times red goes first.

"Ensure", not " insure".
Sorry, I'll get my coat.

I'm convinced red always goes first.

I am red. I can assure you that I go first 60% of the time, all the time.
