Question about map prevention

In the developer update, it states that you'll be prevented from going to the same map twice in a row unless a map offering is used. Which, fair enough, perfectly understandable.

My question involves Realms with multiple maps. If, say, I've just played on Wrecker's Yard, and someone burns an Autohaven offering, does it mean that I can suddenly now load into Wrecker's Yard, or does it still prevent WY from spawning and guarantee one of the other maps instead?

The wording was slightly ambiguous and before assuming one or the other I'd like to double check first 💫

    Map offerings bypass this totaly.

    That's also why I don't much care about this since this will have very small impact. Map offerings are very popular and if someone wants you to send you to their (usualy one sided) map, they still can as much they want.

    Yeah, I would presume from the wording that the use of a Map Offering voids the system entirely, and it just gives you a flat 1/5 chance of each of the Autohaven maps as usual.

    This is only going to have an effect when no Map Offerings are played. Which should still be a bonus. It would mean that if someone played a Map Offering you didn't like in the last game, you have zero chance of getting that same map by chance in the next one. So it will decrease the times you end up on Garden of Joy, on average.
