With out a doubt it has to be Truck Town Thunder 68.

At their first event in Kokomo they were simply awful, I mean bad, but then they won in Lancing and were a force to be reckoned with at MSC seeding 11th in a crazy deep field.

Just an amazing turnaround.


I might add that at Kokomo even when they were having big problems they were a lot a fun to be around and added a lot to the event.

Without hesitation, I'd give the award to 195.
Their season started somewhat disastrously at Waterbury, but now, I see them as undoubtedly the best team in New England.

As far as Indiana goes I have to nominate Cyber Blue 234. In their first event (Indy week 1), they struggled to make stacks consistently even though they ended up rank 2 (their noodle thrower has been great all season). By Indiana State Championships, they could make two 6 stacks + bin and noodle from the HP station, and also had a 20 point auto routine.

1625 went from a -5.3 OPR to a 52.1 OPR in just one event.

I wouldn't be the least bit shocked to see that trend continue into champs as well.

Re: "Most Improved" Award 2015
 
As Much as I'd like to say we improved, yea we started getting consistent 6 stacks with 2 a match but our lead screw broke and never gave us time to test out the new ramp that would rotate totes and allow faster loading. We also on dropped stacks when the lead screw broke, everyone always thought when placing we would but it wasn't possible with out backstop.

5254 I would have to say immensely improved. We worked with them Saturday at tech valley and after helping with a ramp they learned their grove in the eliminations and then also learned a strategy that worked for them. I was happy to see how much they improved with a simple fix.

I'd have to go with Bedford Express. They went from a 53.00 Qualification Average in their first event to a 187.75 at MSC (which they won).

1023 Bedford Express opr jumped from 27.31 at the FIM District Southfield Event to 109.4 at the FIM District Bedford Event, resulting in the highest opr gain of 82.09 globally according to our data http://team955.org/opr/?search=1023

Our first match our robot was fully functional, yet our alliance scored 0 points. Throughout that competition, our QA was 32. At MSC we had a QA of 146 and we were the 7th pick. We plan on doing much better at worlds.

548, another MSC winner, improved from 35 QA to MSC third seed and 172 QA.

I'd have to give it to FRC 955; they went from being just another meh robot in their first event to the second best robot in the PNW, mostly by adding a ramp. (Could make in a good game a capped 4 stack at Wilsonville, and were used entirely for capping (and did well at it) in their finals, while at the District Championships they made 2 capped 6 stacks, as well as another capped 4 in a good match).

Instead of focusing on their rank, im going off Qualification OPR, as i think that shows a bigger difference in how they did.
Im pulling 5 random teams that were in the PNW champs just to show the increase in points.

2471
Event 1 - 59.67
Event 2 - 62.17
DCMP - 124.58


4061
Event 1 - 35.92
Event 2 - 97.75
DCMP - 135.67

4980
Event 1 - 40.25
Event 2 - 57.83
DCMP - 137.67

360
Event 1 - 46.17
Event 2 - 78.58
DCMP - 112.58

955
Event 1 - 49.83
Event 2 - 111.58
DCMP - 137.25

most teams between their first event and the DCMP improved by about 60 points, that's pretty impressive.

My team did very poorly at Los Angeles at Rank 63 with an avg score of 25.22, but we came back strong at Las Vegas in 8th place with an qual avg of 78.17 and an OPR of 39.07.

A small tethered ramp is what mainly increased our performance, as well as practice. We were able to get 2 stacks of 3 with a can+noodle on top consistently.

Kind of what we'd expect, even if the teams didn't really improve at all.

Something about having to qualify to get to the champs.

Right?

Do you calculate OPRs differently than Ed Law does? According to his spreadsheet, 1023 had an OPR of 34.3 at MISouthfield.

Attached is a spreadsheet with the OPR data of all teams attending 2+ events, courtesy of the 2834 scouting database. Top 10 teams in some relevant categories shown below:
most recent OPR - first OPR:

Those look like Qualification Average numbers, not OPR numbers.

To be fair, that has a lot to do with the depth of the field at a district event compared to a district championships
