Re: Top 5 teams for your state over the last 4 years
 

*facepalm* Thanks for correcting me.. how could I forget the roboteers! Especially since they competed against us in Galileo in 2014 and won the division!

Here is my list for Missouri:

1) 1986
2) 1806
3) 1730
4) 1987
5) 3284

Re: Top 5 teams for your state over the last 4 years
 

Well, since we only have 6 teams in our state, it's kind of hard to do this.

I'll do 3.

1. 364
2. 1421
3. 456

Re: Top 5 teams for your state over the last 4 years
 

Honestly, they should have been there last year. They were dominant. 2 event wins after ranking #1 and #1 in Tesla.

Re: Top 5 teams for your state over the last 4 years
 

Yeah. 2481 and 624 were looking good in tesla until they just got plain unlucky in their second Quarterfinal match..

Re: Top 5 teams for your state over the last 4 years
 

3476 has had a good few years too

Re: Top 5 teams for your state over the last 4 years
 

I remember 3476 code orange from 2013 in the Newton division and they've been doing super well ever since they won Newton that year. Definitely does deserve to be top 10 in California.

Re: Top 5 teams for your state over the last 4 years
 

1640 should be on that list.

Re: Top 5 teams for your state over the last 4 years
 

Agree I'll add them they are awesome, worthy of that list.

Re: Top 5 teams for your state over the last 4 years
 

I would think Rochester, would like to dispute that.

Re: Top 5 teams for your state over the last 4 years
 

All of these are my opinion and are at least somewhat objectively decided :P

1)1983 - I don't think they've ever been the absolute best robot in any one of those years (one could make an argument for 2015), but they have been top 3 every single one of those years. They always make quality stuff.
2)1318 - their 2012 robot was ok, 2013 should have gone to worlds, 2014 they were the best in state, and 2015 one could again make an argument for best in state
3)2471 - Swerve is cool, and they use it ever so well. Tend to come up with unique and creative designs that work well
4)2046 - Best robot in the state in 2012, solid design in 2014, and a very successful year in 2015 with an ok robot. 2013 was a bit of an off year, despite giving us 2 blue banners :v
5) uhhhh... 360/2557/3663/488/2907/1595 - there's too many strong teams left and not enough places to put them, and I can't really single one out as significantly better than the others

Also oregon, because go PNW region!
1)4488 - And they didnt even exist in 2012!
2)1425
3)955
4)1540
5)2550

Re: Top 5 teams for your state over the last 4 years
 

Which team from Rochester are you talking about? If it is you I wouldn't really classify you as a "top" team despite your regional win in 2013 and upper seeds in 2014 and 2015.

I should go out and say I do not know too much about the upstate teams. So I am sorry if I left out a few. I tried to choose teams that had multiple regional wins in the last 4 years.

Re: Top 5 teams for your state over the last 4 years
 

340 and 1511 are the 2 that jump to mind immediately.

Re: Top 5 teams for your state over the last 4 years
 

Wow, this is a hard question to answer, so many good teams in Michigan, and they sustain their success too. But here is an effort at it:

1) 33
2) 469
3) 67
4) 2337
5) 1023

This list does not do these teams justice, as they are also REALLY good: 314, 27, 548, 573, 68, 862, 51, 2834, 494, 70, 503, 2054, 2959, 3098, 1918, 3539, 1718.

Re: Top 5 teams for your state over the last 4 years
 

Both those teams have 2 regional wins in the last year and everyone on my list either has that or better. Again I do not know those teams personally as I live in the LI, NYC bubble. So, I encourage you to make more accurate lists based on the better teams upstate.

Re: Top 5 teams for your state over the last 4 years
 

NH:
1) 1519-Obvious choice. Won an event every year except 2014, where they were finalists twice. Was one of the top robots in the world in 2012 and 2015, and was a win away from a world championship in 2013.
2) 3467-Only five years old, but they've come up quickly. A solid robot in 2012, and then three amazing robots from 2013-2015, and a trip to Einstien in 2014.
3) 131- A regional win in 2012 and many deep elimination runs in 2013 and 2014. A down year in 2015 but still a very strong team out of NH over the last 4 years.
4) 1058- (obvious bias) 2014 and 2015 were very good years, and 2012-2013 were years that started out rough but got a lot better throughout the season.
5) 319- 2014 was very solid. 2015 they were arguably the best machine in the state after district champs. 2012 and 2013 were decent.

Very large gap between the top 3 and the rest of the state. 2342 and 138 are both teams that have a had a few good years lately and could easily move onto this list with another good year. 1073, 811 and 213 are also improving dramatically since I started FRC.
