2007 Overall Team Rank by Regional Performances by Swampdude

Anyone remember this?
Well I wanted something to look at for nationals, and I didn't want to put a lot of time into it. So I used the Standings data from the FIRST regional results. This was based on the seeding, win/loss, Ranking points, high score, and Winner or Finalist of the regional. There is also a sheet that shows these rankings for the teams that are currently signed up for the Championship. There are still 4 regionals that are not in the data and have not been played. It is not a great indicator of certain team’s performances as luck can have a lot to do with your results. But its something to amuse ourselves with
I'm sure many will have a problem with the formula or whatever else, feel free to tweak it. This at least puts all the data in 1 place. After this weekends regional are done I'll update it.
Unfortunately there’s no way to tell "how" these teams got these numbers (i.e. ramps, ringers, good alliance pairing etc.) Please don't get wrapped up in the results, as we all know luck has much to do with it. This is just a general indicator of performance.

Very cool spreadsheet! I have no problem with us being ranked at 67th, we can try to play the part of the sleeper turned champ!:D

just a quick suggestion: figure out some way of weighting the elimiation wins more. I was just looking through the rankings. my team (2106) is ranked 490th (not complaining) while the winner of VCU (540) was ranked 709th. It looks like the QP's and seeds are given too much weight. I can't believe how much work went into this. Nicely done!

On the "variables" sheet you can add weight to the winner/finalist (or any of the other items you want to adjust). It is currently set at 20pts. I gave finalists a multiplier of 1 and winners a multiplier of 2. Then you'll have to resort the sheet you're looking at if you change any of the variables by the rank column.
To do this you "select all" by clicking the upper left corner of the sheet where the (2) column and row headers meet. then Data>Sort>Sort by rank and descending.

Omg. We (1717) are ranked 23rd... Wow that makes me feel really good lol. Unfortunately tho, we wont be seeing any of you in Atlanta because we twice lost to the number 1 team (330) in the semifinals and finals in LA and SD repectively. Bad luck I guess.

Anyways, thanks you so much for this spread, it is awesome :)

Ditto to what Emilio said.
Amazing spreadsheet. I can't wait to see how these teams fair in Atlanta

Is Champs the main list saying how all teams rank that are going to Championships?

Re: paper: 2007 Overall Team Rank by Regional Performances
 

Great job with that.
I can't believe that my team (1901) is ranked 52nd overall with all the great teams ou there. How ever will take it:yikes:

Re: paper: 2007 Overall Team Rank by Regional Performances
 

I saw several repeats and didn't see certain teams, can you expalin that?

Re: paper: 2007 Overall Team Rank by Regional Performances
 

The data for Silicon Valley Regional, at least, is incomplete. I know that's because the data on FIRST's own site was not updated after the end of Friday's qualification matches, but it may color some of the results a bit.

Without digging into things too deeply -- how does the frequency of competition for a given team affects its ranking? That is -- some teams play 40 qualification matches in a season and others play 8. Is that considered?

Re: paper: 2007 Overall Team Rank by Regional Performances
 

If you download the rev A - you'll see the teams highlighted in yellow, which indicates they went to multiple regionals. Each listing on the "Results" sheet are for each showing at each regional - so yea there are multiple entries for some teams.

No each listing is for each regional they went to and do not add up together. However some regionals played 10 matches per team, and some only 6, this fact does slant the results a bit as I made a factor based on wins. I suppose the better way would be to ratio a number from the win/loss.


Yes, thats a list generated from who was registered as of this morning, 302 teams. However about 15 of those registered teams still have not played in a regional yet, so they are not listed.

The list of finalists at buckeye is incorrect.

Re: paper: 2007 Overall Team Rank by Regional Performances
 

Which of the ranks is the one I should go on, Results or Champs?

Re: paper: 2007 Overall Team Rank by Regional Performances
 

All of the data is from the FIRST Standings pages. Is their listing wrong?
http://www2.usfirst.org/2007comp/events/OH/awards.html

Results is a list of overall rankings of every team from every regional.

Champs is a list of that same data but only for those teams that will be attending the Championship. But it is also reduced to (1) listing per team. So if a team went to multiple regionals, the list picking only 1 of those automatically. The purpose of Champs is to get a snapshot of the performance of teams going to the Championship.
