New twist on the "Red alliance preferance"

Check out this very interesting article, it may be more than just chance (during quals) and higher seedings (during elims).

Re: New twist on the "Red alliance preferance"

I don't think this finding is very relevent to red vs blue alliances. As the article states, "The bias only seems to crop up in sports such as tae kwon do where competitors are being judged at the same time and referees decisions are more influential on how points are decided."

Secondly, if there was indeed a bias, I would think robots painted red or blue would be more influencial than what color flag they have.

Interesting finding, though.

The videos they watched were modified to swap red and blue (after they watched the same videos in the original format).
