I attached a second graph (qualification methods grouped) because it shows another interesting trend. Up until two years ago, there were about as many culture-changing teams as teams that qualified using their robot. In the past two years, the % of "robot teams" at the CMP has quickly outpaced "culture teams." The causes for this are obvious, but the effect is quite dramatic.

And, because I was playing with a new toy and needed a data source, I created an interactive version of this. I wanted to see how much of CMP got in solely on culture awards. But clicking on the various methods toggles them on or off.
