The use of different trophy values was answered by designers arguing that since that is a party game, they didn't want the outcome to be known beforehand and keep the drama until the end.
I wonder though, if playing on Arena especially, we could have an option that gets rid of this randomness and just uses a standard 2-3-4-5-6-8-10 for example for trophies 1-7. Competitive mode could maybe get rid of this extra random.
Yesterday I played a 4p game where I won trophies 2-3-6-7 while one of my opponents won 1-3-5-7 (no one of us had any extra fans). I ended on 3rd place with 22 pts and he ended up 2nd with 23 pts. I felt I had been robbed of a final. He basically took an extra fan for each of "equal trophies" (3 and 7) and only one of my better trophies (2vs1 and 6vs5) took a fan from him.
Worth it to have the option to remove that extra random?
