I have encountered a weird (bug?) coincidence: two of my favorite maps, Terra Therma and Alpine Peaks, appear only once per 10 matches, where Terra (the best map that I always want to play) appears only once per 10-20 matches. What is happening with the random generator?!

This becomes frustrating and unplayable (for me)...

It's random? That's what random means.

I see both fairly frequently myself.

Lucky you! Then, it might be might side. I have just won all of the challenges with Assault, Medium, and halfway through Heavy 'Mechs. I saw Terra only twice, and both times it lost the votes for some reason...

I think it is random on a curve...
That is the more popular maps will show more often.
I don't think Mordor is very popular with the Laser and or Missile Boat peeps.

Then this is really a bad system that needs fixing. If a less popular map shows less often, then it will win less and get buried even farther. How am I supposed to get my favorite map now?! 32 matches... Not even a sight of Terra Therma. 6x votes. I vote for nothing but Terra now... Can PGI look into that?
