Map and realm repeat prevention seemingly not working.

SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE: Occasionally when loading into games you will be sent to the same map/realm back to back.

PLATFORM: PC

STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW THE ISSUE OCCURED: Load into multiple games, and if you are unlucky enough, get the same realm back to back.

Both of these attached games were back to back

There was a long delay before those matches - so map / realm repeat prevention would not work. Are you having this in instant back to back matches?

    Bumping this up as I just had two of the same map back to back.

    In the second one, the Jane brought a Coldwind offering that obviously got rejected; I'm guessing map offerings are canceling all map repetition prevention, even if the map isn't chosen.

    Replying to add more info. My bad it is so late, I never noticed it.

    The matches were back to back, there was maybe a one min break between when I queued up again + maybe another min or two of queue times.

    Can confirm I have had this issue as well. Instantly queuing after leaving the last match, still getting repeat realms/maps.

    If the threshold for "no repeats" is something shorter than an hour, imo that is way too short. The average match is like 15-20 minutes if it goes until endgame, and queues have been longer lately. If your threshold for a map repeat is "last played this map less than 5 minutes ago" but queues are 6+ minutes, then the system isn't going to account for the fact that the last match you played was in that realm/map, but you were stuck in a queue waiting for your next match.

    Here's my screenshot of getting repeat maps. Got The Game twice in under an hour. Incidentally, I've also had this happen with Midwich. I'm wondering if maybe a realm having only one map in it contributes to this?

    Literally back to back matches on The Game. Jill brought an offering for my first match, and my next match immediately afterwards was on The Game with no offerings. Please fix this.
