The game needs a better map selection system

This is a topic that came up on the Discord, and I'd like to share it further, hopefully for any devs to see. One of the biggest problems I have with the game is how out of the ~30 maps we have, I play the same 4 ones every time. I've played Bostwood for the first time today, and I can remember playing maps like Aqueducts maybe once. While I get Rocky Roadway and Magma Cavern 90% of the times. (Especially Rocky Roadway, I think most of my games are on it).

A kind user went to actually grab data from the large amount of racing he has done (2427 races), and these are the results:

Which clearly show that it's skewed.

Weirdly enough, Rocky Roadway for them is high in play count, but not the highest, meanwhile I rarely get Panda Village.

Finally, it seems like 4* and 5* tracks are not being matched as often as 3*, despite needing the same requirements to unlock play.

So, there's definitely something wacky in there. Would love to see it being looked at.

    Also there's a 5☆ difficulty map which is Glacier themed...I have NEVER been matched up into that map at all except for the time trial mode where I have to choose the track myself.
