premier balls?

so do we know what the reward formula is for premier balls?
it looks like
6 base
3 team owns gym
? team contribution
1-3 for damage done (so far most of my raids have been level 4 in large groups and I have only been getting one ball)

anyone else know anything?

Team contribution is more complicated. This information below is not confirmed.
3 for team with most damage (definite)
2 for team with 2nd most damage (definite)
1 for team with least damage if they did 20% or more of the total damage, 0 if they did less than 20%.

i know they are trying to encourage teams to be meaningful
but while teams are so imbalanced it's a kick in the guts to players from minor teams between the fact it is less likely that the gym is going to be owned by you and on top of that you earn less balls just because there are less of you.

Which also means minority team players have less chance of catching good Tyranitars, Machamps, Laprases, Alakazams, Vaporeons or Flareons, and this creates a snowball effect and further widens the gap.
Unless someone creates many bots in the minority team to go around helping minority team players get extra balls.

For whatever it's worth I soloed a level 2 boss raid by myself today in a gym that showed up as my team's color and got zero bonus balls for gym control in the caputure part? I still got the 11 premier balls I normally get for soloing an enemy gym?

Same with me, I took over two gyms before the boss eggs hatched and got nothing by way of gym control. Same again with a gym my team has controlled for days, no added bonus balls.

5 for the successful raid
0–3 for the damage done
0/2 for the gym control
0–3 for the team contribution

This is one reason for Tier 1-2, solo...
Tier 3, solo if you can or find 1 other player of the same team.
Tier 4, be happy you have enough to take it on...Or duo if you are level 40 maxed out players of the same team with ideal counters...(maybe 3-4 players are needed for some without double weakness).
