Raid Instance Region selection?

How is the region of the instance chosen for Mythic Raids? I’m trying to make the instance LA server but some of my members end up on Chicago and it’s very puzzling on why this would happen. I’m trying to get everyone on all LA so our OCE can have a bearable ping. Any insight on how it’s chosen and if the extended raid lockouts “remember” this region or is this always reset on Tuesday?

Is there a surefire way to ensure theres no region shenanigans and i can always get the LA region?

Note: I do try to raid lead with my Proudmoore character (which is West coast region i believe).

Group leader’s server determines instance server. Everyone in group connects to that datacenter.

Unfortunately, if they are choosing to play from OCE with LA players, they’re not going to have great ping. Blizzard can’t fix it since it’s a problem with routing peers that make the connection path possible across the Pacific Ocean.
