Let me start by saying I’m not competitive and don’t care about who wins or how many points anyone has scored, I just participate for the in game currency and if the mini game is fun, then for that.
Now to my observation - I know there has been a lot of speculation about the groupings of the teams and that blues just have more people so they’re getting more points. I generally barely register the overall results or those of a race and just wait for the pop up to go away so I can go get the medal.
But today I noticed something - there were two different shapes of blue cape in the end result. I didn’t manage to get a screenshot of course, and the few times I tried to replicate this it didn’t happen again (and all the capes, even if duplicate colour were the same shape), but I’m wondering, especially since we often only see greyed out capes in the results so maybe this has somehow gone under the radar, if they had intended to have 5 teams, to go with 5 Olympic rings (and the 5th realm most people run - vault), but for whatever reason the 5th team go absorbed in to blue, which is why there are so many more people in it.
Has anyone else seen anything like this? I know this isn’t the biggest pool of players to ask, but I’m don’t really use any of the other platforms where people talk abut Sky (beyond lurking some on reddit).
Anyway, just an observation and my personal conspiracy to go with it lol
Damn…even without the screenshot that still sounds pretty convincing and this seems to be solved, thanks for the follow-up and the “research”!
After your initial post I got curious and did an informal experiment as well: I joined the tournament with three old accounts of mine. The first one got assigned to the blue team, the second to yellow and the third to green. So, if the sorting is unbalanced, then atleast it isn’t blatantly unbalanced. Sample size: 3 accounts😆
😂
E: and just more confirmation, I just spotted on reddit another screen grab someone took with a non-tournament cape and its icon.
