I'm guessing this is a graph of the MSC rankings during qualification matches? Top teams are at the bottom; a team's rank slowly drops, and then jumps every time they win a match. Very interesting, although a little hard to see what's going on...

To improve clarity, you might want to invert the y axis and tag each line with its corresponding team # either at the left or right end.

Yah it is from MSC. I was gooing to make it a vector but I my computer was not working that day.

Do you know any graphing program better than excel?

Where exactly did you get this data? did you log it all yourself, or is there some backlog of match-by-match ranking information somewhere you compiled? It is really cool! It would take forever, but perhaps a 2014 world ranking could be done (all matches everywhere on one giant illegible graph! :P)

I'm a fan of Matplotlib, which is a Python library for plotting data. Then if I'm feeling especially perfectionist, I export to SVG and use Inkscape for touching up labels and legends.

I logged it myself. All I did was just make a program scan the ranking page every so often. I could maybe make a world ranking graph next year.

Hold on, someone who like matplotlib? What? I've always found it extremely difficult to use.

I made a website of it so you can see the ranks easier. You can also click the team on the legend to disable/enable it.
