Hmmm... The colors are backwards, but the first move is also backwards in this game.  (Black moves first.)  So the side that should have first move advantage does get to move first.  Unless you think that the "placing pieces" phase shouldn't count as a move, in which case the side that does not have first move advantage would actually get to play first anyway.  I'm surprised Game Courier assigned it the way it did, but it does kinda make sense.  I'm not inclined to delete and recreate them unless others feel strongly about it.
