Does Google AdSense Automatically Show Your Best Color Ad?

A WebmasterWorld thread has Google AdSense publishers wondering if Google automatically shows the best performing ad color.

As you know, you can allow Google to rotate the AdSense color templates for you. But is that purely random or is Google showing your best color?

Most publishers suspect Google automatically shows the best performing colors. Netmeg said:

I always just assumed they rotated them. It's a good question.

The help document on this say sit is completely random. I'll quote it:

You can select up to 4 palettes that will rotate randomly.

Would be nice if Google did the best performing color more often?
